Answer to Question 1

C
Palliative care is care that relieves the symptoms, such as pain, but will not alter the course of disease. The goal is to ensure the highest possible quality of life for the client and family.

Answer to Question 2

D
The final stage of the Kbler-Ross stages of dying, acceptance, brings a sense of peace and contentment, but this stage may not be reached by every dying client. During this stage, the client attempts to organize personal and financial affairs. The client requires more sleep and may restrict visitation to those who are especially close.
