Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Hospice benefits include respite for family caregivers, limited hospitalization for acute symptom management, and bereavement care after death. Hospice does not provide financial assistance or funeral arrangements.

Answer to Question 2

C
Wash the patient's eyes with plain warm water, using a clean area of cloth for each eye, bathing from inner to outer canthus. Soap irritates eyes. Use of separate sections of the mitt reduces infection transmission. Bathing the eye gently from inner to outer canthus prevents secretions from entering the nasolacrimal duct.
