Answer to Question 1

A
Having a task-based model offers a framework that incorporates diverse coping skills that can be
identified and taught. A task-based theory does not explain cultural variations or the origins of
unresolved or delayed grief, and it does not cite factors that interfere with successful mourning.

Answer to Question 2

C
Short-term memory is often impaired in clients with delirium and dementia. Reorientation to staff if
often necessary with each contact to minimize misperceptions, reduce anxiety level, and secure
cooperation. Option A: Loud voices may be frightening or sound angry. Option B: Speaking before
touching prevents the client from feeling threatened. Option D: The least restrictive measure should
be used.
