Answer to Question 1

A, C
The ADA outlawed discrimination on the basis of disability in employment, in programs and services provided by state and local governments, and in the provision of goods and services provided by private companies and commercial facilities. It does not mandate government pay-ment for disability services, require buildings to be retrofitted, or provide funding for barrier-free facilities.

Answer to Question 2

B
An early sign of respiratory problems is a change in mental status. Because the physiologic res-ponses to hypoxemia and hypercapnia are blunted in older patients, compensatory changes in heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure may be delayed and cerebral perfusion may suffer. Mental status changes may include subtle increases in forgetfulness and irritability.
