Answer to Question 1

D
Key concepts in holistic nursing include following physician instructions and communicating with the physician; using your own clinical experience; respecting the ideas the elderly patient has about his or her own body and how to make it well and incorporating those ideas into the nursing plan, if possible; and involving family members in the care of the elderly patient.

Answer to Question 2

B
The increased numbers of elderly people in the United States has resulted in new definitions. The term young old is used for people 65 to 74 years old; middle-old, for people 75 to 84 years old; old-old, for people 85 to 100 years old; and elite old, for people older than 100 years.
