Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Constant change is the new norm in medicine. Scientific knowledge related to health care is rapidly increasing and leading to more sophisticated technology. Information management systems have been created and are continually being refined. Such systems support bedside charting, monitoring, laboratory testing, and use of online evidence-based guidelines to provide appropriate care. New discoveries often modify how and where care may be provided. Many advances in technology require specialized personnel, creating new opportunities for individuals seeking employment in the healthcare sector.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

A nursing practice council compares current practice against nursing research to determine the best evidence-based practice for the hospital as suggested by ANA standards. A peer-review committee establishes standards to determine the performance of staff. A council to determine educational needs fits in with the quality improvement. It would review errors reported and suggest educational programs as well as ask the staff for their educational preferences. A quality improvement program monitors client care based on outcomes and also investigates errors and makes suggestions for prevention.
