Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Phaneuf's nursing audit method was one of the first tools, developed in 1965, which has been used extensively in population-centered nursing practice. The ANA's Divisions on Practice was created in 1966; however, this did not provide practice standards. The JCAHO began developing its standards in the mid-1980s. The Community Health Nursing Practice Standards was devel-oped in 1973.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Credentialing is the formal recognition of a person as a professional with technical competence, or of an agency that has met minimum standards of performance. Licensure is a contract between the profession and the state which controls the quality of professional practice. Accreditation is a voluntary approach to QI used by institutions. Recognition is a process, whereby one agency ac-cepts the credentialing status of and the credentials conferred by another.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
