  1. Produces a higher level of insurance reimbursement
  2. Reduces the incidence of aggressive behavior by clients
  3. Produces quicker results and earlier discharge to the community
  4. Produces better outcomes when client problems are viewed from multiple per-spectives

Question 2

  What measure can the nurse use to continue to support the client's attainment of this goal after he returns to the unit?
  1. Avoiding setting limits that would increase his anxiety level
  2. Praising him for positive behavioral changes
  3. Isolating him from more seriously ill clients
  4. Permitting him to make mistakes prior to intervening on his behalf
