Answer to Question 1

B
These disorders most frequently are seen as the result of abuse of adolescents, and abuse of this age group is the most overlooked type of family violence.

Answer to Question 2

B
Referring to the medications by name and providing written instructions will lead to less confusion. Pointing out colors can be a problem if there is visual impairment; quizzing the client is not necessary; and encouraging the client to hold questions may cause questions to be forgotten.
