Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
When patients move from one nursing unit to another or from one provider to another, also known as hand-offs, a risk of miscommunication arises. Accurate communication is essential to prevent errors. SBAR is a popular communication tool that helps standardize communication among health care providers. Common courtesy is part of professional communication but is not the purpose of SBAR. Being trustworthy means helping others without hesitation. Autonomy is being self-directed and independent in accomplishing goals and advocating for others.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Letting the patient know when to expect the relationship to be terminated occurs in the orientation phase. Pre-interaction occurs before the nurse meets the patient. Working occurs when the nurse and the patient work together to solve problems and accomplish goals. Termination occurs during the ending of the relationship.
