Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Listening is the first phase and is essential to understanding the issues. Assessing group needs, creating new teaching approaches, and implementing effective teaching methods can be completed after listening to the issues of the participants.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Although the process of needs assessment can indicate strengths and weaknesses, it can also raise expectations for new services to address problems. It is also possible that this data collection may cause residents to become suspicious and wonder why this data collection is necessary. However, in most cases, this is not problematic. The problem will arise if residents expect that services will be provided when they may not.
