Answer to Question 1

Answer: 4
Explanation: Jean-tienne Esquirol, who created one of the most successful private asylums in Paris, believed that physicians should be the undisputed authority in all forms of mental health treatment. Stokes believed that the care of the insane necessitated a consulting rather than a resident physician. Tuke was one of the leaders of the York retreat, which was under the control of lay therapists rather than physicians. Vincent de Paul helped establish a nursing ministry for the insane.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: During the 19th century, psychiatric nurses attended mainly to the physical needs of patients and did not pursue systematic interpersonal work with them. Psychiatric nursing practice was primarily custodial. Nursing care that systematically addresses anxiety, coping, and altered-thought processes did not come about until the mid-20th century.
