Answer to Question 2

C
A variety of trends have been noted that can impact effective communication in society. These trends can also influence communication in health care environments and make it challenging for nurses and other health care professionals. Some of these identified trends are: 1) increasing diversity of the United States; 2) aging population; 3) technology; and 4) reliance on written communication using electronic data causing a shift from visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modes. Even with these changes in trends, nurses are still required to have keen writing skills in order to communicate effectively.
