What is the purpose of short-term care?

  1. For social gatherings

  2. For educational purposes

  3. For recreational activities

  4. For respite or recuperative purposes

The correct answer is: For respite or recuperative purposes

Short-term care is typically used to provide respite or allow time for recovery from an illness or injury. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because short-term care is not typically used for social gatherings, educational purposes, or recreational activities. Short-term care is often temporary and focused on addressing a specific health need, rather than for social or educational purposes. Therefore, option D is the best answer as it accurately reflects the purpose of short-term care.
