Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3

The Triple Aim initiative was launched by The Institute of Health Improvement, which identified approaches to improve models for healthcare. This initiative identified three critical objectives: improve the patient care experience, improve the health of populations, and reduce the per capita costs of health care. Implementing evidence-based practice and supporting nursing continuing education plans are not objectives identified by the Triple Aim.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

The nurse is violating the standards of leadership and collaboration when refusing to assist the students during the learning process. The nurse is not violating a Code of Ethics or the state nurse practice act.
