Answer to Question 1

C
Services offered by adult day care centers allow family members to maintain their lifestyles and employment and still provide home care for their relatives.

Answer to Question 2

D
Cardiac index is a measure of adequacy of the cardiac output. It equals the cardiac output divided by the patient's body surface area. This calculation provides the caregiver with a more accurate calculation of blood flow by considering the patient's body surface area.
