Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, D, E
When quality of care improves, patient satisfaction improves and has a direct affect on staff sat-isfaction and thus retention. These improvements can then be used as benchmarks against other institutions. Improvement in patient satisfaction is usually a direct reflection of improved quality of care and other nursing-related issues, leading to nurse satisfaction and retention. Benchmark-ing against other institutions is a common method used for determining quality of care. Options B and C are not related to patient satisfaction.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Comparison of current results to previous results (whether good or bad) provides a visual image to which most people can relate. Options A and B are not good methods and do not allow for discussion or brainstorming. Option C does not provide a relationship to past performance.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
