Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5

STTI global health initiatives include: Global Advisory Panel on the Future of Nursing; Technology Informatics Guiding Education Reform; Global Standards for the Initial Education of Professional Nurses and Midwives; and Essential Nursing Competencies and Curricula Guidelines for Genetics and Genomics. Disaster preparedness and response is a global health initiative for the American Nurses Association.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Uninsured Americans access health services if they can pay for them, if they are sick enough to be admitted to the emergency department of a public hospital, or through a national insurance model (Medicaid) if they are extremely impoverished. Since the individual came through the emergency department of a community hospital the nurse should provide care. Asking for proof of insurance or name of last employer is not appropriate since the individual is homeless. Sending to the nearest Medicaid office would be inappropriate because the individual is in need of health care now.
