Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: Clients with a diagnosis of dementia need a stable environment to promote optimal orientation. Client safety, scheduling of admissions, and client comfort may or may not be impacted by the redecoration efforts.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: OCD impacts the family system especially with impaired role function. How frequently the client cleans the house and vomiting during cleaning may be important to assess, but they are not the most important. Forgetfulness is not a component of OCD.
