Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Nursing centers provide opportunities for collaborative practice among APHNs, NPs, baccalau-reate-prepared nurses, and community members. Nursing centers address the health needs of vulnerable populations. Their central mission is community development; public involvement; in-terprofessional practice; and health promotion and disease prevention supported by the principles of primary health care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
One of the best ways for an APHN to establish an independent practice is to market a service package, providing certain services for a specific population. Acting as a legal expert, serving as a liaison, and learning complex assessment skills would not be helpful in establishing an independ-ent practice.
