Because the Physical Environment in Which an Interview Takes Place

Because the physical environment in which an interview takes place is an important consideration for the success of the interview,the interviewer should:

A) reduce noise by turning off televisions and radios.
B) keep a distance of about 0.6 m (2 ft) or closer between himself or herself and the patient.
C) ensure dim lighting that makes the room cozier and will help the patient relax.
D) arrange seating across a desk or table to allow the patient some personal space.
