Answer to Question 1

D
The Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) (2006) has developed evidence-informed best practice guidelines for collaborative practice. There is a call for inter-professional team and collaborative practice models including team, primary, and case management.
The primary nursing model was popular in the 1970s and 1980s and is not considered an emerg-ing model.
The functional nursing model was popular in WWII in response to a nursing shortage, and is not considered an emerging model.
The team nursing model was developed in response to a nursing shortage following WWII and is not considered an emerging model.

Answer to Question 2

C
Offering diversionary activities such as something to hold is a way to keep the hands busy and provides an alternative to restraints. Assigning a room near the nurses' station or a chair at the desk can be an alternative for continuous monitoring. Getting up constantly can be cause for concern. Apologizing is not an alternative to restraints. Having a sitter sit with the patient to keep him occupied can be an alternative to restraints, but the sitter needs to be continuous.
