Answer to Question 1

C
When assisting clients with physical illnesses, nursing theories that emphasize human caring are most productive in dealing with issues related to abandonment, depression, and loneliness. Such emotions are natural human reactions to situations in life that the clients believe others will not understand. An emphasis on human caring not only helps establish rapport, it also helps alleviate some of the sense of abandonment and loneliness a client may feel.

Answer to Question 2

A
For many groups, a ritual celebration is an important way to mark an event such as the ending of the group. This celebration may be as simple as bringing food to share with one another during the last meeting or as elaborate as providing each member with a written remembrance of his or her contribution or something that resembles a graduation ceremony. Each type of ritual provides a way for members to meet the transition of stepping into a new role.
