Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Benner believes caring is highly connected involving each nurse-patient encounter. Swanson developed five caring processes, not four. Watson's theory places care before cure and is transformative, whereas Leininger's transcultural caring views inclusion of culture as caring.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
It is important to preserve a relationship-centered approach to patient care for all aspects of nursing, whether the care focuses on pain management, teaching self-care, or basic hygiene measures. While technology, high tech, and family are important, they are not the priority.
