Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: Long-term care is the best situation for the use of written reports because client needs do not change as quickly as those in acute care facilities.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The nurse's priority of care is providing emotional support and helping to collect data. Bathing would destroy physical evidence, and should be avoided until after the physical examination is conducted by the provider. The physician will determine if a blood alcohol level is needed, which is unlikely. Asking the woman to explain what happened is inappropriate, and she will be questioned by the police. The nurse should supply emotional support and listen to the client without confrontation.
