Answer to Question 1

D
The federal government became more involved in health care delivery with the passage of the Social Security Act. This provided benefits for older adults, child welfare, and federal funding for educating health care personnel.

When caring for a client who is visually impaired, the nurse should always speak and identify him- or herself when entering a room, explain each step of a procedure, and any touching should also be described before it is initiated to prevent startling the client.
