Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
When using a nasal cannula to deliver oxygen to a client, the nurse should remember that the nasal cannula can cause the nasal mucosa to dry in case of high oxygen flow. A simple mask can cause anxiety in clients who are claustrophobic. Clients using a partial rebreather mask are at risk of suffocation. A face tent may deliver an inconsistent amount of oxygen, depending on environmental loss.

Answer to Question 2

B
Patients are not all the same. Each person brings a unique background of experiences, values, and cultural perspectives to a health care encounter. Caring is always specific and relational for each nurse-patient encounter. As nurses acquire more experience, they learn that caring helps them to focus on the patients for whom they care. Caring facilitates a nurse's ability to know a patient, allowing the nurse to recognize a patient's problems and to find and implement individualized solutions.
