Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6
Once an older client suffers pain, there can be serious impairment of functional status. Pain has the potential to reduce mobility, activities of daily living (ADLs), social activities outside the home, and activity tolerance. There is no apparent connection between pain and the development of a dysrhythmia.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
For families on limited budgets, substitutes can be used. For example, bean or cheese dishes can often replace meat in a meal. Peas and lentils are also inexpensive food sources of protein. Or-anges and potatoes are not high in protein content. Potatoes and rice are sources of carbohy-drates, not protein. Rice and macaroni are carbohydrates and are not high in protein.
