Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
A person may live in a board-and-care home, which provides room, board, and minimal supervision. Many people with mental illnesses and/or physical disabilities live in board-and-care or adult foster care homes. The next level of housing is the supervised group home. In this facility, clients are supervised regarding medications and are often required to participate in a treatment program or to work or volunteer a specific amount of time weekly. Other types of congregate living facilities, such as senior apartment complexes, provide more services for older clients or for those with disabilities. Hospice care or end-of-life care may be provided to individuals in congregate living facilities.
