Answer to Question 1

D
Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) would most likely be a possible source of
funds for the nurse's continuing education. HRSA administers training programs for health care
clinicians. HRSA also provides Funding for pregnant women and children, programs for persons with
HIV/AIDS, and programs serving low-income, underserved, and rural populations.

Answer to Question 2

B
Four essential dimensions that pertain to nursing have been identified which influence nursing behaviors and decision making. These four dimensions are nursing, distinctive services, benefits to consumers, and costs of nursing services. When a nurse provides focus on the response of the individual and family to a real or potential health problem, he or she is acting under the dimension of distinctive services.
