ANS: D

The nurse must recognize that in the health care delivery system, the major goal is to achieve optimal

levels of health care. The health care system consists of a network of agencies, facilities, and

providers involved with health care in a specified geographic area. Insurance companies do have

involvement in the health care system. The illness of patients is not necessarily affected by the health

care system.

meet those needs?

d. The nurse‘s notes

ANS: C

An individualized care plan involves all health care workers and outlines care to meet the needs of the

the patient nor are they designed to assist all members of the health care team to meet those needs.

a. increased education concerning causes of illness.

b. improved insurance payments.

c. decentralized care centers.

d. increased number of health care givers.

ANS: A

The acute awareness of preventive medicine has resulted in today‘s emphasis on education about

issues such as smoking, heart disease, drug and alcohol abuse, weight control, and mental health and

wellness promotion activities. This preventive education has resulted in an emphasis on wellness,

rather than illness. Improved insurance payments, decentralized care centers, and increased numbers

of health care givers did not influence an emphasis on wellness.
