Answer to Question 1

B
Confused residents often ask, Where do I belong? when they lose their memory and problem-solving abilities. This is a reflection of their inability to use recent experiences to solve problems or answer questions. This statement would not be an example of responses A, C, or D. Altered perceptions often cause an older adult to exhibit paranoid behavior. Alterations in judgment affect the safety of older adults. Long-term memory loss would affect memories of distant events.

Answer to Question 2

F
Terminal restlessness, a clear sign of imminent death, occurs in more than 75 of dying patients. This state of agitated delirium is a manifestation of the spiraling down of physiological functions and requires careful and thoughtful intervention.
