Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Positive resolution of this stage is characterized by creativity, developing career and family.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Increased fluid intake helps to liquify chest secretions, making cough productive and reducing frequency of cough once airways begin to clear. This is consistent with the naturopathic beliefs of the client. Cold air causes bronchoconstriction . Over-the-counter medications are not consistent with the client's beliefs, and are unlikely to be used.
