Answer to Question 1

B
Physical wellness involves maintaining one's body at optimal functioning. To achieve physical wellness, a person must practice good hygiene and grooming; use proper body mechanics; maintain good posture; avoid smoking and using nontherapeutic substances; and follow a routine of adequate nutrition, sleep, rest, and exercise. Nurses must make personal choices about each of these aspects, such as getting adequate sleep every night, keeping weight within desired limits, and bathing and brushing teeth daily.

Answer to Question 2

A
Hospice care is provided to clients who can no longer benefit from curative treatment and have 6 months or less to live. Hospice care is designed to provide sensitivity and support, allowing clients to continue an alert, pain-free life with other symptoms managed so the last days are characterized by dignity and quality of life. Most clients receive hospice care at home. The primary physician must refer the client to the hospice. Dying is regarded as a normal process, and nothing is done to hasten or postpone death. Relief of pain and other distressing symptoms is provided. The client is supported to live as actively as possible until death. The family is supported during the client's illness and in their bereavement after the client's death.
