Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: The nurse measures vital signs before and after administration of a medication that can impact vital signs; an antipyretic is meant to reduce temperature

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: Long-term care insurance is available, and helps to cover the cost of long-term care at any age. Policies differ based on daily amount, length of time coverage will continue, and cost, so the client would be best served by discussing this with an insurance agent. Nursing homes do not have prepayment plans at this time.
