Answer to Question 1

B
Some individuals do not believe in the existence of God (atheist) or believe that there is no known ultimate reality (agnostic). This does not mean that spirituality is not an important concept for the atheist or the agnostic. Atheists search for meaning in life through their work and their relationships with others. Agnostics discover meaning in what they do or how they live because they find no ultimate meaning for the way things are. They believe that people bring meaning to what they do.

Answer to Question 2

A
Although the unregulated care provider can apply the restraints under the nurse's direction, he or she cannot document, evaluate, or take physicians' orders. The nurse is always responsible for assessment of clients' safety needs.
An unregulated care provider cannot take physicians' orders.
An unregulated care provider cannot document the events that led to restraining the client.
An unregulated care provider cannot evaluate the effectiveness of the restraints.
