Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
All of these forms of continuing education would be available in such a setting.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E, F
The majority of nursing home residents are elderly and receive long-term care. Most receive medications. Those who develop pressure sores require wound care. IV therapy is used less in nursing homes than in hospital settings. Managed care is used less in nursing homes than in hospital and community health settings.
