Answer to Question 1

D
Control of health care resources is spread among a number of vested groups called stakeholders. Everyone is a stakeholder at some level in health care, but some groups are more politically active than others. These stakeholder groups include insurance companies, professional nursing organizations and health care groups such as physicians and pharmacists.

Answer to Question 2

D
The public's perception of nurses is directly influenced by the presentation of the nursing profession in the media. Several strategies that nurses can use to help promote the nursing image and profession include: writing opinion editorial pieces in local newspapers, encouraging television spots promoting the nursing image, and writing letters to the editor promoting the image of nursing in local and state papers, While being on the American Idol television show may be exciting and access a large audience, the activities inherent in the television show do not tend to promote the image of nurses as a profession.
