Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback: The client needs clear direction, with tasks broken into small steps, to begin to participate in her own self-care.

Answer to Question 2

D
A realistic concern in the provision of health-care services to the homeless is that individuals who are homeless relocate frequently. Frequent relocation confounds service delivery and interferes with providers' efforts to ensure appropriate care.
