Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
The diverse physiologic and psychological capabilities of people and encounters with various safety hazards across the lifespan put various age groups at risk for different safety concerns and associated potential injuries. The older clients are at higher risk for hurting themselves while meeting their needs.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C, D
Feedback:
Unintentional injuries at home are common for the older adult. Safety habits, no longer reinforced by watchful adults, can become rusty; disregard of judgment, overconfidence, or ignorance can place adults in danger's path. In addition, adults may consume alcohol, which interferes with judgment to interpret the environment and with physical capabilities to operate machinery, thus contributing to injuries.
