Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Availability is the greatest advantage to the institution for using agency nurses. Competency may or may not be a factor, and until the nurse is working on the unit, one can never know for sure. The other options are not an advantage to the institution.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Agency nurses are very expensive compared with employees. A large percentage of the cost to agencies is the overhead of the agency itself. The other options are incorrect because most agen-cies have diminished this as a factor affecting patient care or job performance.
