Answer to Question 1

C
Standardization of care is a way of protecting against negative outcomes and reducing costs. Standardized guidelines are not based on opinions. Salary administration is part of the accounting and fiscal management of a facility, not standardized guidelines. Benchmarking involves gathering data on the status of client outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

D
Most health care decisions are based on the individual's social network and information provided by this network. Advice from professionals is not based on cultural health practices.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
