Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Decision making requires choosing a solution to a problem. Reasoning is the process by which a nurse determines a patient's health status after gathering data and applying meaning to behaviors and physical signs and symptoms. A systematic approach in finding solutions is termed problem solving, and judgment is the process of forming an opinion by comparing solutions through reasoning.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
A helping relationship develops through ongoing, purposeful interaction between a nurse and a patient. The focal point of the nurse-patient helping relationship is the patient and the patient's needs and concerns. Nurse-patient relationships focus on five areas: (1) building trust, (2) demonstrating empathy, (3) establishing boundaries, (4) recognizing and respecting cultural influences, and (5) developing a comprehensive plan of care.
