Answer to Question 1

B, C, D
Long-term care has traditionally referred to a community-based nursing home licensed for skilled or intermediate care. Subacute care provides services for clients who are no longer critically ill but have complex medical needs. It is designed to fill the gap between acute care and the traditional long-term care facility.

Answer to Question 2

B
Inflammation, a nonspecific cellular response to tissue injury created by trauma, bacteria, or other substances, produces a five-stage complex of tissue changes called the inflammatory process. This process serves to localize, neutralize, and resolve the initiating agent within the injured tissue and produces local and systemic signs of inflammation. While inflammation may not be caused by invading microorganisms, its signs and symptoms are similar to those of an infection.
