Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The National Center on Elder Abuse was established by the Administration on Aging to act as a resource to reduce the number of older adults experiencing abuse. The American Association of Retired Persons is an organization that works to improve the lives of older adults. There is no such thing as the Elder Abuse Prevention Center.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: While it is illegal to ask this question, saying that in point blank language would be considered confrontational, and could have negative results. It is best to reassure the interviewer that your religious beliefs, or lack of religious beliefs, will not negatively impact the care you provide to clients.
