A hospice provides care to those who are diagnosed as:

a. Homebound (patients on strict bed rest).
b. Terminally ill (expected to die within 6 months).
c. Pregnant and expected to deliver within 30–45 days.
d. Mentally ill.

Answer: b
Feedback: A hospice is a health care facility that specializes in providing end-of-life care to those who are terminally ill. A home health agency would provide care to a patient who is homebound. A birthing center might provide care to a pregnant woman getting ready to deliver her baby, and a behavioral health or psychiatric facility would provide care to those with diagnosed psychological conditions.
