One of the major goals of hospice care is:

1. freedom from pain and other symptoms.

2. free care for all dying clients and their families.

3. to cure the client using very aggressive medical treatment.

4. to transfer all dying clients to the hospital when death is imminent.

A client is in the last stages of dying. The nurse assesses for the signs of impending death, which include:

1. flushed warm skin.

2. very slow regular pulse rate.

3. inability to hear.

4. Cheyne-Stokes respirations.
