Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Millions of Americans are living with one or more chronic debilitating diseases, and 7 out of 10 can expect to live with their diseases several years before dying. When coupled with the advancing age of the eight million baby boomers who now qualify for Medicare, this will soon create a huge demand on health care resources and community-based services.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
All of these options can provide care whether it is on a temporary or permanent basis. Young children do not provide care.
