Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
When setting priorities, it is best to first meet the needs that the client believes are most important. In this situation, the woman is not refusing food altogether; rather, she wants to feel good about herself (self-esteem) when she does eat.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
One of the most important considerations in writing outcomes is to encourage the client and family to be involved in goal development as their abilities and interest permit. The more involved they are, the greater the probability the goals will be achieved.
