Answer to Question 1

C
The nurse administers 100 oxygen during and after electroconvulsive therapy to prevent anoxia due to medication-induced paralysis of respiratory muscles. Electroconvulsive therapy is the induction of a grand mal seizure through the application of electrical current to the brain.

Answer to Question 2

B
SAMHSA lists the following as guiding principles for the recovery model: recovery emerges from hope; recovery is person-driven; recovery occurs via many pathways; recovery is holistic; recovery is supported by peers and allies; recovery is supported through relationship and social networks; recovery is culturally based and influenced; recovery is supported by addressing trauma; recovery involves individual, family, and community strengths and responsibility; and recovery is based on respect. Recovery emerges from hope, but affiliation with any particular religion would have little bearing on the recovery process.
