Answer to Question 1

A
The 2008 National Healthcare Disparities Report found that health care disparities often persist across
socioeconomic groups, racial and ethnic populations, and geographic areas. The report also noted that
across the process of care measures tracked, patients received the recommended care less than sixty
percent of the time.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, E, F
The AACN (2004) identified five key factors that must be considered in order to effectively delegate nursing tasks. These five factors are: 1) potential for harm (determine potential risks for the patient related to the activity to be delegated); 2) level of patient interaction (value time spent with the patient to develop trust); 3) complexity of the task (delegate simple tasks); 4) amount of problem solving and innovation required (do not delegate tasks that require innovation, a creative approach, adaptation, or special attention in order to be completed.); and 5) unpredictability of the outcome (tasks in which the outcomeand impact on the patientare not clear should not be delegated.).
