Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B, D, E
Feedback:
Hospice care services may include physician services, nursing care, hospice aide services, social worker services, and short-term, not long-term, inclient care (for pain and symptom management).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
The parish nurse is bound by professional confidentiality not to reveal information about the health of patients, even if they are known to members of the congregation. Refusing to share information in a way that does not seem cold is a delicate art. One way to avoid this conflict is to explain to congregants early in the program, and often thereafter, that confidentiality for each member will be maintained. Often, the nurse can simply say, I am sure that she would appreciate a call or a card; this relieves pressure to share much information.
