Answer to Question 1

C
The nurse should collaborate with other health care team members such as physical or occupational therapists when considering mobility needs. Nurses often delegate some interventions to nursing assistive personnel. Nursing assistive personnel may turn and position patients, apply elastic stockings, help patient use the incentive spirometer, etc. Occupational therapists are a resource for planning ADLs that patients need to modify or relearn. It is especially important in priority setting to make sure not to overlook potential complications. Many times, actual problems such as pressure ulcers are addressed only after they develop. They should be addressed before they develop.

Answer to Question 2

C
Ensuring the client's well-being and helping the family to become active participants are critical for family members.
The family should participate in the planning of the proposed plan of care.
Explaining all procedures before they are executed does not necessarily demonstrate caring.
Suggesting appropriate support systems does not necessarily demonstrate caring.
