Answer to Question 1

D
In the 1800s, state hospitals were established in rural communities to remove those who were mentally ill far away from the communities that feared them. The concept of mental illness at that time was very negative. Patients were often stereotyped because of their behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

A
Taking time to center oneself is a basic principle of personal energy management. It is important for nurses to be centered, especially in the midst of chaos, stress, and confusion, which may be present in the work environment.
