Answer to Question 1

D, E
The correct responses provide information to the patient about the purpose of the relationship and recognize the underlying need. The other options are ineffective.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D
Providing structure means that staff members meet patient needs for organizing elements in the environment to produce specific outcomes. Contemplating change is the only option that would not be considered an example of structuring.
