Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
A collaborator works with other members of the healthcare team. While this may be a form of advocacy, the focus here is on working with other members of the team.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Extended-care facilities, particularly skilled-nursing homes, can provide continuous nursing care for patients who require more care than those who are discharged to home.
