Two important therapeutic interventions for setting limits are to reinforce the established structure and to be consistent.

Answer to Question 2

D
Criminal profilers attempt to provide law enforcement with specific information and the type of individual who would have committed a certain crime. Profilers use behavioral and psychological indicators left at violent crime scenes and apply their understanding of psychopathology, attempt to reconstruct the crime, formulate hypotheses, and develop a profile, which is then tested against known data. The other options refer to roles the psychiatric forensic nurse may fill, but none of these roles fits the description given in the scenario.
