Answer to Question 1

B
Restorative care centers provide rehabilitation and nursing care. In primary care centers, health promotion is the major theme. Assisted living centers offer long-term assistance with activities of daily living. Respite centers offer short-term relief to persons who provide full-time care to an older adult.

Answer to Question 2

C
Nurses should reduce bathroom hazards while clients are in a health care facility and teach clients to take similar measures in their homes. A nurse should teach a client to install grab bars near the tub or shower in their homes and to use them when in health care facilities.
