Answer to Question 1

D
Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) would most likely be a possible source of
funds for the nurse's continuing education. HRSA administers training programs for health care
clinicians. HRSA also provides Funding for pregnant women and children, programs for persons with
HIV/AIDS, and programs serving low-income, underserved, and rural populations.
