Answer to Question 1

C
An intensive care unit is the most expensive delivery site for medical care because each nurse is usually assigned to care for only one or two patients at a time and because of the types of treatments and procedures the patients in the intensive care unit typically require.

Answer to Question 2

B
Situational loss occurs as a result of a sudden, unpredictable life event. A situational loss often involves multiple losses. A divorce, for example, begins with the loss of a life companion, but often leads to financial strain, changes in living arrangements, less contact with one's children, and loss of friends who were part of the couple's married life.
