Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Medical models focus on the patient's diagnosis. The medical model is not patient specific, nursing oriented, or community oriented.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, E
Major attributes of health care quality include conformation to standards set by regulatory agencies, sound decision making regarding care, and identifying potential adverse events. High acuity of patients does not contribute to quality health care, because the care demand is increased, and low health care costs mean fewer services may be available.
