Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Rural nursing offers a great variety and diversity of clinical experiences because care is often given across the life span. Typically in nursing practice in rural areas, it is a faster pace, has great-er independence/autonomy, and sparse resources. In rural areas there are typically less providers, so there may be more indirect collaborative practice opportunities but more limited direct collab-orative practice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Native Alaskans have special care needs related to exposure to toxic substances/contaminants, hypothermia, interpersonal/domestic violence, infectious diseases, dental caries/loss, and diabe-tes. Farmer's lung is associated with farmers/ranchers. Field sanitation is associated with migrant farmworkers. Black lung is associated with coal miners.
