Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The prefix cysto pertains to the bladder, nephro pertains to the kidney, pyelo pertains to the renal pelvis, and uretero or urethro pertains to the ureter, tubes from kidneys to bladder and from the bladder to the outside of the body, respectively.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Hospice services must be extended to the family during the time of bereavement (following the client's death) for at least 1 year. The goal of hospice care is symptom control (intensive palliative care), not curative measures. Clients should remain as alert and comfortable as possible. The hospice must be a centrally administered, autonomous program. Staff members and family caregivers primarily provide care, with backup inpatient services. Hospice services must be based on a client's needs, not on financial resources.
