Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Small amounts of food should be placed toward the back of the mouth. Use a slight pressure on the tongue with spoon. Allow the client to help as much as possible by holding the bread, finger foods, and drink (if not too hot). If choking occurs, help her sit up. Do not give food or water while choking. Be aware of choking and the potential need for the Heimlich maneuver. Keep the mouth as clean as possible.
