Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3, 5

Ten forecasts from the World Future Society include: 1. Thanks to big data, the environment around you will anticipate your every move. 2. We will revive recently extinct species. 3. By 2020 populations will shrink, and wealth will shrink with them. 4. Doctors will see brain diseases many years before they arise. 5. Buying and owning things will go out of style. 6. Quantum computing could lead the way to true artificial intelligence. 7. Phytoplankton death will further disrupt aquatic ecosystems. 8. The future of science is in the hands of crowd-sourcing amateurs. 9. Fusion-fueled rockets could significantly reduce the potential time and cost of sending humans to Mars. 10. Atomically precise manufacturing will make machinery, infrastructure, and other systems more productive and less expensive. Although each of these forecasts might affect nursing in some way, two have more of an impact than others.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Case managers are gatekeepers of the healthcare delivery system; they ensure that only care that is deemed essential is provided for patients. Awareness of public policy, hospital policy and procedures, and utilization of pharmacology measures in patient care are concerns of the case manager but not his or her priority of focus.
