Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Rural nursing offers a great variety and diversity of clinical experiences because care is often given across the life span. Typically in nursing practice in rural areas, it is a faster pace, has great-er independence/autonomy, and sparse resources. In rural areas there are typically less providers, so there may be more indirect collaborative practice opportunities but more limited direct collab-orative practice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Native Alaskans have special care needs related to exposure to toxic substances/contaminants, hypothermia, interpersonal/domestic violence, infectious diseases, dental caries/loss, and diabe-tes. Farmer's lung is associated with farmers/ranchers. Field sanitation is associated with migrant farmworkers. Black lung is associated with coal miners.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
