Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, E
The caregivers are there to be supportive. A person's attitude about end-of-life care is affected by his or her age, gender, cultural background, religious affiliations, and life experiences.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C, D, E
The family cannot alter an advance directive made by a patient. It is a legally binding document that clarifies and prevents violation of end-of-life choices of the patient and can only be altered by the patient.
