Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D
A Magnet hospital is characterized by excellent patient outcomes resulting from nursing, a high level of nursing job satisfaction with a low nurse turnover rate, and appropriate resolution of any grievances.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The unique ability of a patient to understand and integrate health-related knowledge is known as health literacy. Formal patient education is delivered throughout the community in the form of media, in a variety of educational and group settings, or in a planned, goal-directed, one-on-one session with a patient in the acute care setting. Informal education is usually learner or patient directed. Many health care consumers begin receiving information as children through their primary education. Handwashing, proper dental care, and nutrition are examples of early instructions.
