Answer to Question 1

methadone
Methadone maintenance treatment should be offered as part of a comprehensive care
program that includes behavior therapy and support services. MMT has been shown to
decrease opioid and other drug abuse, decrease criminal activity, improve individual
functioning, and decrease the HIV rate.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A A child's state of wellness, rather than cost, determines the length of stay.
B Children become ill quickly and recover quickly; therefore they can require acute
care for a shorter period of time.
C Separation anxiety is primarily a factor of the stage of development, not the
length of hospital stay.
D Family disruption is a secondary outcome of a child's hospitalization; it does not
determine length of stay.
