Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

B
The case management process is represented by the activities that case managers perform. CCMC (2012) has identified the eight essential case management activities with direct client contact as 1) assessment, 2) planning, 3) implementation, 4) coordination, 5) monitoring, 6) evaluation, 7) outcomes, and

general activities.

Answer to Question 3

A
The translation of research into practice operates at four levels: The individual healthcare profes-sional, healthcare groups or teams, organizations, and the larger healthcare system or environment. The adoption of saline flushes illustrates the challenges of communicating EBP to other disciplines and organizations and of the involvement of different levels. This particular innova-tion needed endorsement by nurses, physicians, and pharmacists, as well as by administrators who needed evidence of lost savings to support adoption.
