Answer to Question 1

C
The medical model is defined as the traditional approach to health care in which the focus is on treatment and cure of disease.

Answer to Question 2

C
Demand for entry into nursing programs has grown but many qualified applicants were not admitted in 2006 due to a shortage of nursing educators. Interest in joining the nursing profession remains high. A shortage of nursing faculty reflects an aging workforce and increasing competition from clinical practice.
