Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
All of these forms of continuing education would be available in such a setting.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E, F

IV therapy is used less in nursing homes than in hospital settings. Managed care is used less in nursing homes than in hospital and community health settings.
