Answer to Question 1

A
Often older adults minimize things that they can no longer remember rather than acknowledge that the memories no longer exist. This is not an example of short-term memory loss (response B), altered perception (response C), or altered problem solving (response D).

Answer to Question 2

A
Hospice care generally involves services provided in the home to an older adult and his or her family members. Responses B, C, and D all are services the older adult would have to leave home to receive. Nursing homes are either intermediate or skilled care facilities. Adult day care is a program that provides more social and interpersonal care than personal care.
