Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A
An advantage of the protype patient classification system is the reduction of work for the nurse, who is not required to classify patients daily. Some major disadvantages of the system include: no ongoing measure of the actual nursing work required by individual patients, no ongoing data to monitor the accuracy of the preassigned nursing care requirements, and the system is much less common than others, such as the factor-type system.
