Answer to Question 1

Answer: B, C, E

Using telehealth, the client can live and stay in the home and does not need to move closer to the treatment or monitoring facility. The client will not be required to change healthcare providers. Telehealth allows for the client to participate in a videoconference, keep health records in the home agency, and lower many of the costs that could be incurred with frequent travel.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A, B, C, E

When analyzing online information the source of the information should be validated. The sponsor of the website should be clearly identified. The site should be studied to see if a product is being sold. A date when the data was last reviewed or updated should be visible. It is not necessary to locate the number of visitors to the website.
