Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Case management is a system of interventions designed to support mentally ill clients living in the community. The major components of case management are psychosocial rehabilitation, consultation, resource linkage (referral), advocacy, therapy, and crisis intervention. Administration of medications is performed by an individual, not a system, and clients are involved in planning their care.

Answer to Question 2

B
The most important feature of a factitious disorder is that symptoms are purposefully produced to enable the individual to assume the sick role.
