Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, E
Providing mechanical ventilation equipment and performing CPR are not aspects of palliative care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
A values clarification exercise neither designates any value as negative nor suggests that any value be abandoned. The exercise is to help persons gain insight into their own value system.
