Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
In addition to providing services to improve oral communication, a speech therapist may also diagnose and treat swallowing problems in clients who have had a head injury or stroke. A physical therapist assists with musculoskeletal and neurological impairments, a social worker is educated to help clients with economic and social issues, and a respiratory therapist provides treatments to improve breathing.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Physicians are granted the authority to admit clients to a health care agency or institution, and to provide care in that setting by the health care agency or institution itself. They are licensed to practice medicine by a state medical board, not a state board of nursing or a board of healing arts.
