Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Quantitative research uses precise measurement for data collection and analyzes numerical data. The design is rigorously controlled. The remaining options are reflective of qualitative approach to research.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2, 3, 4

Factors that contribute to adverse events include human factors such as teamwork, communication, fatigue, stress, and burnout. The new graduate could be stressed or having difficulty with teamwork or communication. UAP working a double shift could contribute to fatigue. Missing information on the care plan regarding ambulation could contribute to communication. The client's appetite and discharge plans were most likely not human factors that contributed to the occurrence.
