Answer to Question 1

A
Rape-trauma syndrome is a variant of posttraumatic stress disorder. Reporting the absence of signs
and symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder suggests that the long-term reorganization phase has
been successfully completed. The other options suggest that the process is ongoing.

Answer to Question 2

D
Placing door locks at the top of the door makes it more difficult for the client with dementia to
unlock the door because the ability to look up and reach upward is diminished. Option A: All throw
rugs should be removed to prevent falls. Option B: Placing a mattress on the floor to prevent falls is
a better intervention than raising the height of the bed. Option C: Day napping should be
discouraged with the hope that the client will sleep during the night.
