Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The financial status of the client determines the viability of certain interventions in the community
but is of little or no concern when determining a program of in-hospital treatment. The family
history of mental illness, the physical status of the client, and culturally related dosage differences
for psychotropic drugs would be of equal concern to the nurse in the hospital and the nurse in the
community.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Verbal tracking simply keeps track of what the client is saying. It is giving neutral feedback in the
form of restating or summarizing what the client has said. Option B seeks validation. Options A and
D are examples of exploring.
