Answer to Question 1

2
Explanation: 1. Staff in community health are not necessarily less interested in their own education.
2. There is less budget and few if any onsite staff educators in public/community health.
3. Schools of nursing have required public/community health clinical and assign students to these services.
4. This is correct so not a major difference.

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 1. QI is important in all areas of healthcare delivery.
2. The effectiveness of a QI plan should not vary from a hospital or community. Implementation may be a problem, but not the plan.
3. The need for data collection is the same for the community and the hospitalboth need data, but how one gets the data may be different.
4. Having staff dispersed means they it is more difficult to turn to a colleague or have regular interaction face-to-face about QI.
