Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Some herbs and supplements may interact with prescribed medications, so the nurse needs to document the herbs or supplements that the client reports taking. Extensive specialized training is required before a nurse can be competent to advise clients on the use of herbs and supplements.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Guided imagery involves using five senses to imagine an event or body process unfolding according to plan. Yoga is the practice of physical postures that promotes strength and flexibility. Prayer does not involve the five senses and is difficult to measure. Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils of plants to treat symptoms.
