Answer to Question 1

1. Maturational crisis

Rationale:
Senior year is a transition to work or college. This is a developmental progression to the next level of maturity, a predictable event experienced by nearly all individuals. Situational crises typically arise from sudden, unanticipated events or changes. In recoil, the initial stress has passed, which is not the case for the client who is nearing graduation. There is not enough information to assess the presence of a previous trauma.

Answer to Question 2

D
In the case management system, the nurse assumes responsibility for planning, implementing, coordinating, and evaluating care for a given patient regardless of the patient's location at any given time.
