Answer to Question 1

D
Priority outcomes for community treatment focus on the individual being able to function at his or her optimal level by attending to activities of daily living. The other options have a lower priority or can be managed by others.

Answer to Question 2

B
Individual problems are not dealt with in community meetings. It is suggested to patients that individual issues be discussed with one's therapist. The focus of community meetings is on matters of general concern to the group at large. When the patient is informed of when and where to address the individual problem, it should be done in a nonpunitive manner.
