Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Self-reflection is a valuable tool for many older adults, but it does not occur easily or naturally for many people and is likely to require some teaching and guidance. It is not necessarily easier for older people or for women, and cognitive deficits do not preclude it.

Answer to Question 2

Administration of tetanus toxoid is an additional medical measure for compound fracture of the femur.
