Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Team communication takes place informally and in structured formal team meetings. Interdisciplinary team relationships take into account diverse standards and behaviors associated with each clinical discipline, while emphasizing a common mission of working together to resolve complex clinical problems.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Health care systems organized around acute, episodic care no longer suffice as a primary service model. The complexity of contemporary health care requires a different care process to match new health realities. There are several reasons: demographics of the population with greater ethnic and racial diversity, longer life spans, serious economic challenges, and health disparities associated with social determinants of health, globalization, and significant skilled provider shortages, most notably physicians and nurses. Technical and scientific advances have revolutionized the prevention and diagnosis and treatment of acute illness. As people live longer, however, there is a higher incidence of chronic conditions requiring an array of supportive health care services. For these reasons, and more, focus on care provision has shifted from the hospital to the community and a public health focus.
