Question 2
In addition to facing the stigma associated with being mentally ill, forensic patients who are mentally ill also experience stigma associated with being a criminal. A nurse is explaining this stigma to a nursing class.

A) Nurses may be reluctant to care for mentally ill criminals because of unrealistic fears for their own safety and that of their other clients.
B) Nurses may prefer to care for forensic clients because they do not believe criminals can be mentally ill.
