Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A, B, E, F
Feedback:
When a client receives short-term services or intermittent care, the nurse provides care in the home for a short period of time or provides care at specific intervals. Examples are drawing blood, setting up medications, administering IV medications, and administering a periodic electrocardiogram. Daily visits to an elderly client with emphysema would be long-term home care, and dressing changes are performed for 1 to 2 weeks following surgery.
