Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Older clients or people with chronic, disabling conditions may require long-term care in their homes. Long-term services include periodic nursing assessment and case management, with homemaking and personal care services provided. Nurses may assist with restorative nursing, such as assisting with exercises to maintain muscle integrity. Clients with cardiac disorders comprise a high percentage of the case load in many home care agencies. A client in spinal traction would require short-term home care as would a client with cancer, who may eventually need hospice care. A newborn with Down syndrome would most likely be taken care of by the parents, or cared for on an outpatient basis.
