Answer to Question 1

D
For a psychiatric nurse to be politically active, helping others to become involved in their local area is a good step toward political awareness. Raising donations would be health care related rather than political action. Involvement in specific election campaigns would not have a direct correlation with psychiatric mental health issues, and being an active volunteer would be beneficial to the community that the crisis center serves but not a direct political action.

Answer to Question 2

D
