A 56-year-old woman provides care to her 91-year-old widowed father. She says she is frequently fatigued and that she no longer socializes with her friends. I'm so busy taking care of my dad.
 
  It's really hard work because he is bedridden. Sometimes it breaks my heart when I have to feed and bathe him. He always seemed so strong when I was a child. The most appropriate nursing diagnosis for this woman is:
  1) Caregiver Role Strain.
  2) Impaired Home Maintenance.
  3) Interrupted Family Processes.
  4) Risk for Caregiver Role Strain.

Question 2

A home health nurse is working with a physical therapist and home health aides to work out a schedule for their visits that will best address the patient's needs. Which nursing role does this demonstrate?
 
  1) Direct care provider
  2) Client and family educator
  3) Client advocate
  4) Care coordinator
