Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The working phase occurs when the nurse and the patient work together to solve problems and accomplish goals. Preinteraction occurs before the nurse meets the patient. Orientation occurs when the nurse and the patient meet and get to know each other. Termination occurs during the ending of the relationship.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
SBAR is a popular communication tool that helps standardize communication among health care providers. Common courtesy is part of professional communication but is not the purpose of SBAR. Being trustworthy means helping others without hesitation. Autonomy is being self-directed and independent in accomplishing goals and advocating for others.
