Answer to Question 1

C
The most appropriate greeting is for the nurse to introduce herself and ask the client how the client would like to be addressed. This greeting supports development of the first stage of the therapeutic nurse-client relationship. During this stage introductions are made and boundaries are identified.

Answer to Question 2

C
Agranulocytosis is a problem associated with taking clozapine. Some clients experience a reduction in their white blood cell count requiring that the medication be discontinued.
