Answer to Question 1

A
Research by Aiken, Havens and Sloane (2000), Friese (2005), and Lake and Friese (2006) noted that health care facilities that have obtained magnet status tend to have environments that are indicative of nurse job satisfaction, prevention of burnout, and an improvement in perceived quality of care.

B
Nolte and McKee (2008) identified France as having the best health care system worldwide. French health care is provided through both private and government insurance, but in France everyone is insured with no additional patient charges for insurance deductibles (Shapiro, 2008).
