Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: In the pre-deployment cycle, feelings alternate between denial and anticipation of loss. In the redeployment cycle, feelings alternate between excitement and apprehension associated with homecoming. In the sustainment cycle, families establish new support systems and new family routines. In the deployment cycle, the spouse struggles to take charge of the details of living without his or her partner.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The most appropriate statement by the nurse is to instruct the client to rise slowly when changing positions. Antipsychotic medications and beta blockers cause a decrease in blood pressure. When given in combination, the additive effect of these drugs places the client at risk for developing orthostatic hypotension.
