Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Nurse-managed clinics focus on health promotion and health education, disease prevention, chronic disease management, and support for self-care and caregivers.
Physical therapy is not typically offered in a nurse-managed clinic.
Same-day surgery is not offered in a nurse-managed clinic.
Psychiatric therapy is not offered in a nurse-managed clinic.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
With the case management model of care, the case manager coordinates the efforts of all disci-plines to achieve the most efficient and appropriate plan of care. Continuity of care is of primary importance.
If the efforts of all disciplines are well managed, repetition or delays may be avoided with a re-sultant shortened hospital stay. Therefore this focus of care may not be more expensive.
The physician may or may not be the coordinator of client care. The case manager typically is a nurse or social worker.
Case management is not entirely based on the level of care required.
