Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Some families of Chinese Americans will prefer to bathe the client themselves. They often be-lieve the body should remain intact; organ donation and autopsy are uncommon. Chinese Ameri-cans do not prefer pastoral care for after-death care of a family member. Organ donation is un-common for Chinese Americans. Chinese Americans may desire time to bathe the client. Quick removal from the hospital is not preferred.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
According to Kbler-Ross, the client is in the denial stage of dying. The client may act as though nothing has happened, may refuse to believe or understand that a loss has occurred, and may seem stunned, as though it is unreal or difficult to believe. There is no stage of anxiety in the five stages of dying of Kbler-Ross. There is no stage of confrontation in the five stages of dying of Kbler-Ross. During depression the individual may feel overwhelmingly lonely and withdraw from interpersonal interaction.
