Answer to Question 1

B
It is important to obtain the family's perspective of nursing care: how you planned and delivered the care with them, whether it was satisfactory, whether it met the family's goals, and if not, what they think was needed instead. This evaluation needs to be ongoing so that care delivery techniques can be modified or adjusted as needed.

Answer to Question 2

A
The most common back injury is strain on the lumbar muscle group, which includes the muscles around the lumbar vertebrae. Injury to these areas affects the ability to bend forward, backward, and side-to-side. This also decreases the ability to rotate the hips and lower back.
