Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Just as in the acute care facility, the client in the rehabilitation facility has the right to self-determine treatment, and would not be kept from leaving. It would be important to notify the RN and/or physician depending on facility policy, and the client will be asked to sign an elopement form before leaving.

Answer to Question 2

3,4,5
Rationale: NO FEEDBACK
