A new psychiatric technician asks the nurse, Aren't you bored? All psychiatric nursing requires is the skill of being vigilant. The only thing nurses do is watch the client. The reply that is most educative is:
 
  1. Nurses must implement knowledge of the science of nursing to provide safe, ef-fective care.
  2. Clients are people and need both protection and kindness, as well as close moni-toring.
  3. Psychiatric nurses must also have the ability to follow professional guidelines.
  4. Your statement seems to be an attempt to define me.

Question 2

A layperson asks, What is new in the area of diagnosis and treatment for the mentally ill? The nurse should mention which two new advances in neuroscience?
 
  1. Insulin therapy and wet packs
  2. Neurogenomics and neuroimaging techniques
  3. Community settings for care of depressed persons
  4. Electroconvulsive shock treatments and antipsychotics medications
