ANSWER: | D
Professional |role |overlap |cannot |be |denied; |however, |nursing | is |unique |in |its |focus |on |and
| application |of |psychotherapeutic | management. | Neither |the |facility |nor |the |multidisciplinary
| team |define |the |professional |responsibilities |of |its | members | but | rather |utilizes |their |unique
| skills |to |provide | holistic |care. | Ideally, |all |team |members |support |each |other |and | have
| functions |within |the |team.
