Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
The physician certifies the client has a health problem so that the client may receive home health care services. The physician also prescribes and certifies a plan of care for the client. The plan is not certified by a social worker, discharge nurse, or home health care nurse.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The essential components of home health care include the client, the family, and health care professionals from various disciplines. The goal of nursing care in the home is to help clients reach maximum independence and health. Although nurses collaborate with other health care providers, they do so to meet this goal. Home health care is not provided to minimize disease manifestations or to encourage clients' dependence on family members.
