Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Self-esteem needs include the need to feel good about oneself, to feel pride and a sense of accomplishment, and to believe others respect and appreciate those accomplishments. By respecting the client's values and beliefs, the nurse can meet self-esteem needs.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
A balance between the intake and elimination of fluids is essential to life and is, therefore, a physiologic need, according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Measuring intake and output, testing the resiliency of the skin, checking the condition of the skin and mucous membranes, and weighing the patient all help the nurse assess water balance.
