Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The nurse plays a key role in establishing a productive working relationship with an adolescent. Appropriate levels of privacy will demonstrate trust and the increased need for independence in the adolescent and may provide an opportunity for the adolescent to verbalize questions/concerns. Emotional development in an adolescent occurs on an individual basis. The nurse must exercise care in offering confidentiality in the event that information needs to be divulged to other healthcare providers. Adolescents may require help with decision making.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The IV route allows for the greatest titration and bioavailability of the medication. The other routes are less exact.
