Answer to Question 1

ANS: LaLeche League
The LaLeche League provides information and support for breast-feeding mothers, as well as breast milk for infants because of health reasons.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, E
Board and care home residences offer housing and custodial care and usually do not employ licensed staff. Intermediate care facilities provide health-related care to persons who do not require acute or skilled nursing services but who need facility placement. Care is usually provided by CNAs. Skilled nursing facilities rely heavily on LPN/LVNs. Adult day care centers are more likely to hire CNAs and personal care assistants who are supervised by RNs. Hospices often employ LPN/LVNs.
