Answer to Question 1

1, 2
Rationale: An adult survivor of incest would most likely have low self-esteem and a sense of powerlessness.

Rationale: The most appropriate intervention in the seventh stage of AD is to promote the client's dignity by providing comfort, safety, and self-care measures. Stage is characterized by severe cognitive decline in which the client is unable to recognize family members and is most commonly bedfast and aphasic.
