Answer to Question 1

T
RBCs carrying hemoglobin are produced in the bone marrow; a decrease in bone marrow production frequently leads to a decrease in levels of RBCs, hemoglobin, and hematocrit.

Answer to Question 2

D
End-of-life care and related issues are unique to each person. They require the nurse to be comfortable, or at least knowledgeable, about his or her own beliefs and attitudes. End-of-life issues include communication and education, psychosocial care, symptom management, and referrals. The issues are not the same for all individuals.
