Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Phaneuf's nursing audit method was one of the first tools, developed in 1965, which has been used extensively in population-centered nursing practice. The ANA's Divisions on Practice was created in 1966; however, this did not provide practice standards. The JCAHO began developing its standards in the mid-1980s. The Community Health Nursing Practice Standards was devel-oped in 1973.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Credentialing is the formal recognition of a person as a professional with technical competence, or of an agency that has met minimum standards of performance. Licensure is a contract between the profession and the state which controls the quality of professional practice. Accreditation is a voluntary approach to QI used by institutions. Recognition is a process, whereby one agency ac-cepts the credentialing status of and the credentials conferred by another.
