Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Assisted-living arrangements offer the privacy of an apartment or condominium with meals prepared and served, limited medical care, and a variety of personal services.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The broadest sweeping legislation beneficial to the older adult is Medicare and Medicaid. The elimination of the mandatory retirement age does not apply to health care. The Americans with Disabilities Act deals with all Americans with disabilities, not just the older adult. The Drug Benefit Program was added to Medicare, but deals only with medications.
