Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
The more comprehensive term integrative therapy may be used instead of complementary or alternative, implying the use of practices in conjunction with traditional health care modalities in the care of clients.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has become a mainstream part of U.S. health care. One major reason for this development is the general dissatisfaction of many clients with Western (allopathic) medicine. Cost, coordination, and documentation of efficacy are lesser factors.
