B)  “Tell me about where you live: do you feel your needs are being met, and do you feel safe?”

D)  “What limitations are you dealing with related to your hypertension and being in a wheelchair?”

B -  The question, tell me about where you live: do you feel your needs are being met and do you feel safe? seeks to explore the specific issue of the safety in the home environment. People who are older, have a disability, and live in the community setting are at a greater risk for abuse. Options A, C, and D would not require modification of the health history.
