Answer to Question 1

A
Accommodation is tested by asking a client to focus on an object in the distance and then move his or her gaze to a nearby object. This will dilate the pupils.

Answer to Question 2

D
The nurse can also call on a client's religious support system, such as rabbis, clergy, or laypersons, to provide spiritual care. Nurses must also recognize and respect that some people do not believe in a higher being or practice a specific religion.
