MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. An 89-year-old man, who was recently discharged from a rehabilitation hospital because of an
inability to concentrate and frequent memory lapses, cannot be left alone while his family
works. What options should the discharge planning team suggest that will satisfy safety
concerns and give the greatest quality of life to the patient?
a. Placement in a day care center from 8 AM to 5 PM daily
b. Placement in a long-term psychiatric facility
c. Placement in a high-security nursing home
d. Admission to a general hospital for evaluation
ANS: A
Day care centers provide supervision, safety, nutritious meals, and socialization while the
caregiving family works.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 7 OBJ: 5

MSC: NCLEX: Physiological Integrity: Reduction of Risk

2. A 66-year-old hospitalized patient is anxious about how the physician will be paid now that he
is on Medicare Parts A and B, instead of his previous privately funded insurance plan. Who
should the nurse explain is the payor to the physician on this plan?
a. Previous privately funded insurance plan
b. Medicare Part A
c. Medicare Part B
d. Patient or patient’s family
ANS: C
Part A pays skilled care facilities. Part B pays for physician’s services. The previously held
insurance is no longer available because of the patient’s age. The family or patient is not
responsible because Part B is in effect.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: p. 11 OBJ: 4
TOP: Health Care Funding KEY: Nursing Process Step: Implementation

Medicaid is available to needy low-income persons younger than 65 years of age who have a
permanent disability. Medicare is for persons 65 years and older. Public health services are
