Answer to Question 1

Coping
Coping mechanisms provide a way for people to deal with stress. Coping mechanisms are effective as long as they are not continually used by an individual when faced with stressful situations.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E
The correct answers support the rights and choices of the dying individual. Acting on false information robs a patient of the opportunity for honest dialogue and places barriers to achieving end-of-life developmental opportunities. The nurse supports the patient's spirituality but does not have the answers to all questions.
