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

Interest in joining the nursing profession remains high. A shortage of nursing faculty reflects an aging workforce and increasing competition from clinical practice.
