Answer to Question 1

A
Data from Aikens' study indicated that increasing patient/client acuity levels has made the work lives of nurses more difficult. Another factor included was the increase in nurse-to-patient ratios. These factors contribute to nurse burnout.

Answer to Question 2

B
Community support systems were networks organized to meet the needs of individuals with severe mental illness. These groups came about because of deinstitutionalizat ion. The NIMH requested input from consumers, family members, and health professionals on a method to address the needs of individuals who had been discharged from large state hospitals and returned to their communities.
