Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
A helping relationship exists among people who provide and receive assistance in meeting human needs. When a nurse and a client are involved in a helping relationship, the nurse assists the client to identify and achieve goals that allow the client's human needs to be met.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
SBAR stands for Situation, Background, Assessment, and Recommendations, and provides a consistent method for hand-off communication that is clear, structured, and easy to use. Vital signs would fall under the category of situation; mental status: background; client request: assessment; further testing: recommendations.
