    Explanation
    A living will is a legal document that outlines an individual's healthcare preferences in the event that they become incapacitated and unable to communicate their wishes. In order to ensure the validity and authenticity of the living will, it must be signed by the principal (the person creating the living will) in the presence of witnesses. The correct answer states that the living will must be signed in the presence of 2 subscribing witnesses, 1 of whom is neither a spouse nor a blood relative. This requirement helps to prevent any potential conflicts of interest or bias that may arise if the witnesses have a personal relationship with the principal.

Additionally, having multiple physicians involved reduces the chances of bias or error in the diagnosis, as different perspectives and expertise are taken into account.

    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "Oak may be used for cutting boards, cutting blocks, baker's tables, rolling pins and salad bowls." This statement is not true because oak is not an appropriate material for making cutting boards, cutting blocks, or salad bowls. Oak is a porous wood that can absorb moisture and bacteria, making it unsanitary and unsafe for food preparation. It is also not recommended for rolling pins as it can easily crack or split. Therefore, oak should not be used for these purposes in a food service setting.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "steam tables and warmers can be used to rapidly reheat even potentially hazardous food." This statement is not true because steam tables and warmers should not be used to rapidly reheat potentially hazardous food. Potentially hazardous foods should be reheated rapidly to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) within 2 hours, and steam tables and warmers are not designed to rapidly heat food to this temperature.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    B. A separate health care surrogate may be designated to make mental health treatment decisions
    Explanation
    A separate health care surrogate may be designated to make mental health treatment decisions. This means that it is possible for someone to appoint a specific person to make decisions regarding their mental health treatment, separate from the person who has been designated as their general health care surrogate. This allows individuals to have more control over their mental health care decisions and ensures that someone who understands their specific needs and preferences is making those decisions on their behalf.

    • A. 

      1

    • B. 

      2

    • C. 

      3

    • D. 

      4

    Correct Answer
    B. 2
    Explanation
    In order for a written document designating a surrogate to make health care decisions for a principal to be valid, it must be signed by the principal in the presence of two subscribing adult witnesses. The presence of two witnesses ensures that the document is properly executed and provides additional evidence of the principal's intent to designate a surrogate. Having only one witness may not be sufficient to validate the document, while having three or four witnesses is not necessary and may be excessive. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.
