Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: Hands-on care includes physical assessments, dressing changes, and managing IV sites for therapies, which is not the scenario described here.
Rationale 2: Direct care is the same as hands-on care, which is not the scenario described here.
Rationale 3: Client advocacy is not the scenario described here.
Rationale 4: Indirect care is provided by the home health nurse to the client each time the nurse consults with other health care providers about ways to improve nursing care for the client.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Community health nursing focuses on individuals, families, and aggregate groups.
Rationale 2: The focus of home health care nursing is individuals and their families.
Rationale 3: Hospice nursing supports the care of the dying client and the client's family; this is not the focus of home health nursing.
Rationale 4: A home setting identifies the location of home health nursing, but not the focus.
