Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
Psychiatric home health care services are appropriate for different age groups, clients with acute psychoses, clients with SPMI, and clients with AIDS. Inadequate coping skills would not justify psychiatric home care.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
Case management is responsible for helping the person make informed choices, ensuring timely access to needed assistance, providing opportunities and encouragement for self-help, and coordinating all services to meet the client's needs. Case management does not typically involve the provision of interventions or ensuring compliance.
