Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The nurse should not impose outcomes on the client; however, the nurse has a responsibility to help
the client evaluate what is in his or her best interests. Exploring possible consequences is an
acceptable approach.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Consultation-liaison activities are reserved for the advanced practice nurse. The other nursing
activities may be performed by basic level psychiatric mental health nurses.
