Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4, 5
I just can't seem to get excited about anything anymore and The family always thought that my father was depressed. Remember to always have supporting cues before you make an infer-ence. These options relate a broad lack of interest in life and a family history of depression. While mentioning My work environment would depress anyone as a depressing situation, this option does not infer personal depression. While mentioning It seems like almost anything can make me cry as a potential sign of depression, this option is not a strong inference because crying can be a result of other emotions. While mentioning Being here away from my family makes me sad notes sadness, this option describes a normal reaction to being separated from loved ones. While mentioning I like winter because I can just cover up on the couch and sleep shows withdrawal behaviors, this option is not a strong inference because winter often evokes stay-at-home tenden-cies in people.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1, 2, 4, 5
The orientation phase begins with you introducing yourself and your position and explaining the purpose of the interview. Explain to clients why you are collecting data (e.g., for a nursing histo-ry or for a focused assessment) and assure them that any information obtained will remain confi-dential and will be used only by health care professionals.
The statements We are here to make your hospitalization as pleasant as possible and I need to ask you some questions that will help with planning your care are more appropriate for the ter-mination phase.
