Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Option C is the only question that directly addresses healing options.

Answer to Question 2

Disruptions in ability to perform activities of daily living, confusion, and anxiety are often apparent

confusion helps increase feelings of safety and security. Option A: This option does not provide the
structure or support often required by clients with amnesia. Option C: Probing is not a recommended
strategy for a client with amnesia. Option D: Clients with amnesia need a balanced activity schedule
that allows for rest because they often feel fatigued.
