Answer to Question 1

A
An occupational therapist works with patients with functional impairments so they can learn skills for activities of daily living. Assisting in the provision of patient care activities under the direction of an RN is the role of unlicensed assistive personnel. Assessing a person's strength and mobility and working with patients experiencing musculoskeletal problems are the roles of a physical therapist.

Answer to Question 2

D
The CDC provides transmission-based precautions or guidelines to follow for infection control. Guidelines exist for airborne, droplet, and contact transmission.
