Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Proposed changes in the health care delivery system will provide new opportunities for public health specialists and result in the creation of new roles within the system. The proposed changes will build an integrated system (not isolated), decrease emphasis on acute care services, and focus on health promotion and disease prevention.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
Barriers exist in thinking that nurses only work in a hospital at the bedside, the process of role socialization in public health which can be a very autonomous profession, and that few nurses have had advanced education in public health. The number of job opportunities continues to in-crease, but the amount of funding allotted to public health continues to decline.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
