Answer to Question 1

C
Maturation is a developmental process; the nurse must assess the client's developmental stage to ensure that the planned teaching-learning activities are appropriate. The client's developmental stage, including cognitive skills, problem-solving abilities, and attention span, determines what teaching methods and vocabulary the nurse should use and what content the nurse should present. The maturation of teenagers includes the adaptation of parents modeling the behaviors they wish their children to develop.

Answer to Question 2

A
Civil law deals with the legal rights and duties of individuals and includes contract law, tort law, and protective or reporting law. Contract law outlines the enforcement of agreements between private individuals, such as an employment contract between a nurse and a health care agency to perform certain services. For an agreement to be a legal contract, certain conditions must be met: promise(s) between two or more legally competent individuals stating what each must or must not do, mutual understanding of the terms and obligations that the contract imposes on each individual, and compensation for lawful actions performed. While the individuals can have an oral contractual agreement, a formal written contract cannot legally be changed by an oral agreement. Contracts can be expressed, providing the conditions and terms of the contract, or implied, recognizing the relationship between parties for services.
