Answer to Question 1

C
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a total process that makes a conscientious, judicious effort to utilize
the most current and best evidence for clinical decision making regarding patient care. It uses
evidence-based models and guidelines, and when it is applied to nursing practice, it is called
evidence-based nursing practice.

Answer to Question 2

C
Maintaining high quality-of-work-life environments requires the commitment of both leaders and
employees in organizations. Leaders in high-performance organizations recognize that the single best
predictor of an organization's capacity to attract, motivate, and sustain talented people is to maintain a
high quality work-life environment.
