The major nursing responsibility for clients who are dying is
 
  1. To maintain the client's comfort and dignity
  2. To assist the client to a peaceful death
  3. To maintain a sense of hopefulness
  4. To help the family accept the death

Question 2

The mother of an adolescent boy asks the nurse if boys have body changes that mark the beginning of puberty for which she needs to prepare her son, like she prepared her daughter for menarche.
 
  The best answer by the nurse would be that adolescent boys: 1. Do not need or benefit from any particular preparation for the onset of puberty.
  2. Need preparation for regular nocturnal emissions about every two weeks.
  3. Need instructions on good hygiene and shaving most of all.
  4. Benefit from preparation about sudden enlargement of the scrotum and penis.
