Answer to Question 1

D
Psychosis often prevents individuals from being able to perform activities of daily living. The other options do not cause loss of touch with reality.

Answer to Question 2

B
Residential programs offer a protected, supervised environment, which is what this client needs to be compliant. Emergency department care has stabilization and crisis as its focus, psychiatric home care works with clients and families in transition, and community mental health centers deal with crisis, counseling, and education.
