Answer to Question 1

D
The patient and family should be made aware of symptom triggers to which the patient is particularly reactive. Triggers may precipitate relapse. Teaching the family to modify this behavior is ideal, but if it is impossible, the patient can be taught to contact a mental health provider.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D
The psychiatric nurse uses knowledge from the psychosocial and biophysical sciences and theories of personality and human behavior. From these the nurse derives a theoretical framework on which nursing practice is based.
