Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

B
In the team nursing model of patient care, a group of patients is assigned and cared for by a group or team of care providers such as an RN, an LPN, and an NAP. Functional nursing is task-oriented. Total patient care can be described as a patient (or patients) cared for by an RN with some support by other members of the health care staff, but the support staff is not specifically assigned to a particular group of patients. Primary nursing designates the RN as the primary provider of patient care.
