Answer to Question 1

A
The patient and the parents must participate and agree on a behavioral contract that clearly outlines rules, expected behaviors, and consequences for misbehavior. It must also include rewards for following the rules. The patient will continue to experience anger and frustration. The patient and parents must continue with family therapy to work on boundary and communication issues. It is not necessary to separate the patient from the family to work on these issues, and separation is detrimental to the healing process.

Answer to Question 2

1
Delirium is commonly referred to as acute confusion.
