Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Adult foster care and group home programs offer services to individuals who are capable of self-care but who require supervision to protect them from harm. Thus, they are good short- or long-term alternatives to institutionalizatio n.

Answer to Question 2

C
A Holter monitor (a small portable recorder) is attached to the patient by one to four leads, with a 2-pound tape recorder carried on a belt or shoulder strap.
