Answer to Question 1

2
Definition of depression

Answer to Question 2

B, C
When the client is the court, the focus of the nurse's interactions with the patient is dictated by the needs of the court. Assessments of competence, risk, and dangerousness are the special focus of psychiatric forensic nurses, psychiatrists, and psychologists. Forensic nurses sometimes work with alleged victims (e.g., sexual assault nurse examiner SANE nurses). Forensic nurses remain neutral and objective, advocating for the legal process rather than for the patient (while corrections nurses may serve as patient advocates).
