Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Because sunset laws are set to expire at a specified point in time, legislatures are
obligated to review and evaluate them prior to expiry. Sunset laws do not directly influence the
nurses' standards of practice, the quality of healthcare facilities, or the accreditation process.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Earlier hospital discharge to the home and an increasing emphasis on prevention has
created new demands on nursing in the community. This shift is not rooted in mistrust of
hospitals, a lack of learning in hospitals, or trends in Medicare and Medicaid
