Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Caring theory practice requires awareness of the implications of change on both you and others. When you or others are threatened by change, you cannot move to a higher level on Maslow's hierarchy, and you may regress to lower levels. You are then unable to contribute to nursing and your job.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
A common mistake that can be made during the change process is failure to provide psychological support for those who are going through the change. People should be allowed to talk out their feelings and should be appreciated for their efforts. Change can be unsettling and it takes time. Supporting staff through change helps ensure that the change will be successful.
