Answer to Question 1

C
Encourage family members to discuss normal family activities, reminisce about enjoyable times, and ask about the patient's concerns. Suggest simple and appropriate tasks for family members to perform (e.g., offering help with meals, simple hygiene or comfort activities, or filling out a menu).

Answer to Question 2

C
Community-based nursing centers are the first level of contact between members of a community and the health care delivery system. Ideally, a nurse provides care close to the patient's residence. This approach helps to reduce the cost of care and to improve access to health care services.
