Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Long-term care of a family member with a chronic illness may lead to caregiver role strain, so the most appropriate nursing diagnosis is Risk for Caregiver Role Strain.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Love and belonging needs include the understanding and acceptance of others in both giving and receiving love, and the feeling of belonging to families, peers, friends, a neighborhood, and a community.
