Answer to Question 1

4
An integrated care delivery system is a network of organizations that provide a coordinated continuum of services to a defined population. Team, module, and primary are all examples of care delivery systems to provide inpatient client care.

Answer to Question 2

Stage II Hodgkin's lymphoma means that the disease is located in two or more lymph node regions on the same side of the diaphragm. This diagnosis does not mean the client is terminal or easily treated. Stage IV of the disease would mean the disease is in the bone marrow.
