Nurses must examine their attitudes about alcohol, tobacco, and other drug abuse and addiction before working with this health problem. Why is this necessary?
 
  1. Working with clients who have addiction problems often put the nurse at risk for violence.
  2. The population of persons with drug and alcohol addiction is found in low-income neighborhoods.
  3. In order to be therapeutic, a nurse must develop a trusting nonjudgmental rela-tionship with clients.
  4. Nurses are the primary persons who treat addiction problems.

Question 2

Staff review committees are the most common specific approach to quality assurance. The audit, the major tool used to evaluate quality of care, consists of six steps.
 
  A quality assur-ance manager does an audit and six months later returns to see if a problem has been elimi-nated. This step is: 1. The step that involves selecting explicit criteria for quality care
  2. The step where records are reviewed
  3. The step that includes a peer review of all cases that do not meet criteria
  4. The last step in the audit process
