Answer to Question 1

C
Most mental status tools, such as the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) (Folstein), the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ) (Pfiffer), and the Mental Status Questionnaire (MSQ) (Kahn), assess level of impairment (response B) and can be used with medical and psychiatric patients. Only the SPMSQ can correct for education level and race.

Answer to Question 2

T
Skilled nursing facilities require a higher level of staffing by RNs and therapists, and they are capable of offering a higher level of care.
