Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
This diagnosis considers those in a community who may be feeling helpless, hopeless, or frustrated because of an extraordinary event. Financial and physical resources may not be available for rebuilding. Social isolation refers to unacceptable social behavior. Deficient community resources is not a NANDA-I diagnosis. Deficient community health may become a problem if sanitary conditions lead to an outbreak of disease.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
OASIS (Outcomes and Assessment Information Set) is a data set of outcome measures for adult home health care clients that is used to track outcome-based quality improvement. Factors that could potentially affect patient safety in the home are particularly important. The other options are not included in this assessment.

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.
