Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Succession planning focuses on what is best for the organization and involves organizational assessments, action plans, and mechanisms to identify employees with leadership potential. The goal is maintaining continuity to ensure strategic and operational effectiveness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
If staff nurses know how to do a procedure properly but do not do it because the necessary supplies and equipment are not available to them, then the need is an administrative one rather than an educational (staff development) need.
