Answer to Question 1

Answer: B, C, E

It is not essential for clients to involve their family members in healthcare decisions. Clients have the responsibility to provide complete and accurate information about their symptoms, history, and status to their healthcare team. Accepting financial responsibility for treatment does not require immediate payment. Clients must understand that noncompliance with treatment recommendations may result in poor outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

Services are reduced because of increasing costs and needs. One reason for increased costs is the practice of defensive medicine because of the risks of malpractice litigation. There is an increasing shortage of nurses and physicians. Over the next decade, there will be an increasing number of older adults needing medical care. The cost of supplies and medication, not the amount available, is the reason for decreased services.
