Answer to Question 1

A
The nurse behavior described is typical of overinvolvement. There are no data to support the distracters.

Answer to Question 2

B
Memory impairment is present but not sufficiently so to create risk of injury or impair self-care. Although the husband assists her with selected complex tasks, the patient remains sufficiently capable of basic activities of daily living that she does not need a caregiver.
