Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Critical thinking skills are crucial to the development of a well-coordinated care plan and its execution. Specific strategic analysis skills are not necessary for this role. Relaxation training skills and accounting skills are not a part of care coordination.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B

Care coordination may involve advocating with the client's insurance company to cover the costs of a resource. Telling the occupational therapist or client to come up with other plans or resources is not an appropriate role for a care coordinator. The coordinator may try to find another source to cover the cost for necessary equipment.
