Answer to Question 1

B
You would most likely begin to implement palliative care. Palliative care has been defined by the
World Health Organization as the active, total care of patients whose disease is not responsive to
curative treatment. Palliative care is directed at preventing, reducing, and relieving symptoms of
disease or disorders rather than interventions to cure.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D, F
Quality care, image of nursing, professional development, autonomy and management style are part of
the fourteen forces of magnetism. Quality of medical leadership is not one of the forces; however,
quality of nursing leadership is.
