Answer to Question 1

D
The facilitator uses confrontation by indicating that it is true that the patient has done all the talking in the group today. This is done by a good facilitator in order to spark the other group members into contributing to the statement in a safe environment. Good group facilitators will use active dimensions of empathy, genuineness, and confrontation. The above is an example of confrontation without judgment and with genuineness and empathy.

Answer to Question 2

C
The nurse's work in tertiary prevention involves rehabilitative efforts.
