Answer to Question 1

A, C, E, F
Power is used by nurses and health care professionals to provide care and make decisions. Power has been defined as having its basis in expertise, reference (or charisma), coercion, connection, legitimacy, and reward. While need and determination certainly can have an influence on power and the use of power, they are not considered one of these possible key contributing factors.

Answer to Question 2

Profitability results when the income is higher than the expenses. The extra income would allow the
hospital to give raises to each of the staff members.
