Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Empowering individuals and families to assume primary responsibility for self-management of chronic illness in partnership with ongoing professional support is a critical means of bridging the gap between diminishing financial support for chronic care and multifaceted care demands that can last for years. Relevant primary care strategies focus on client-centered care, collaborative goal setting, problem solving, and coordinated follow up.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Clients are discharged earlier and sicker, often with complex medication and treatment regimens to be followed in the community in primary care settings.
