Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A, C
Some of the disadvantages of functional nursing are that the patient receives task-focused care, and since several staff members may provide care to a patient during the shift, this care may seem disjointed to the patient. Some advantages of this approach include: care can be delivered to a large number of patients, and it can be used when there is a shortage of available RNs as other staff members are also used to provide patient care.
