Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
The treatment choice for pediculosis corporis or pediculosis pubis is lindane. Permethrin is typically used for head lice. Neither an anti-seborrhea shampoo nor a keratolytic shampoo will be effective against lice.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Frequent bathing for the older client can dry skin and contribute to skin breakdown.
