Answer to Question 1

C
Standardization of care is a way of protecting against negative outcomes and reducing costs. Standardized guidelines are not based on opinions. Salary administration is part of the accounting and fiscal management of a facility, not standardized guidelines. Benchmarking involves gathering data on the status of client outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

D
Most health care decisions are based on the individual's social network and information provided by this network. Advice from professionals is not based on cultural health practices.
