Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Respect is demonstrated by providing an environment in which practices are accommodated and supported. Assessment and introductions to other clients do not necessarily demonstrate respect.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
The nurse should recognize that he or she does not have the specialized training of a counselor. A counselor has specialized training to help clients examine all options.
