Answer to Question 1

2
Agencies that provide continuing care include adult daycare, long-term care facilities, and hospice. Continuing care is not provided in acute care or specialty care hospitals nor in physicians' offices.

Answer to Question 2

2
Capillary refill is assessed by applying pressure to the fingernail and then quickly releasing the pressure and watching for the return of color. Skin changes, skin turgor, and peripheral edema are all assessments of the extremities; however, do not use the application of pressure to a fingernail to assess.
