Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The Patient Self-Determination Act of 1990 requires that patients have the opportunity to prepare advance directives.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Elite-old adults are persons over 94 years of age; they were young during World War II. Reminiscence groups share memories of the past. The incorrect options are less relevant to this age group.
