Here is the original passage from page 719 of the source:

Because advance directives are not yet the norm, end-of-life decisions for patients without medical decision-making capacity are made regularly within discussions between the patient's physician and family. Communication and decision making in these situations require a complex integration of relevant conceptual knowledge of ethical implications, the principle of surrogate decision making, and legal considerations; and communication skills that address the highly charged emotional issues under discussion. –from Lang, Forrest, and Timothy Quill. “Making Decisions with Families at the End of Life.” American Family Physician 70 (2004): 719-23. ProQuest Direct. Jacobs Library, Oglesby, IL. 18 April 2005. <http://proquest.umi.com>.

1. _____ Lang and Quill make the case that a person’s doctor and family often decide end-of-life issues for patients without advance directives.

2. _____ Lang and Quill indicate that such decisions necessitate an understanding of ethics and surrogate decision making and an ability to address highly charged emotional issues (719).

3. _____ Lang and Quill point out that the absence of advance directives makes end-of-life decisions decidedly more complex for doctors and families (719).

4. _____ One recent article points out that the absence of advance directives makes end-of-life decisions decidedly more complex for doctors and families (719).

5. _____ A person’s doctor and family often decide end-of-life issues for patients without an advance directive. No one wants to have to make such decisions. Such decisions necessitate an understanding of ethics and “surrogate decision making” and an ability to discuss “highly charged emotional issues” (Lang and Quill 719).
