Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The initiation phase also includes clarifying the source of referral and sharing information re-garding the purpose of a home visit with the family. Some aspects of the pre-visit phase include reviewing the referral, addressing personal safety concerns, and determining if the home visit is required or voluntary. The in-home phase is the actual visit to the home. The major task of the post-visit phase is documenting the visit and services provided.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Summarizing the accomplishments of the visit provides a basis for planning further home visits, which is part of the termination phase. Conducting a physical assessment and teaching about health are parts of the in-home visit phase. Identifying household members is part of the pre-visit phase.
