Answer to Question 1

3
Explanation: 1. The availability of nurses has historically affected the method of client care delivery. Nursing
shortages have required nurses to be creative in caring for clients. Increased acute care days,
decreased acuity, and enhanced hospital revenues are incorrect because client days have
decreased, acuity levels have increased, and hospital revenues have been challenged.
