A nurse cares for obstetrical patients in a rural hospital in a small town, with

the closest tertiary hospital over four hours away. The hospital has been

experiencing financial difficulties over the past year, and the nurse is

concerned because over the last year, the fetal monitor stopped working

and was never repaired. The nurse has been instructed to use a Doppler,

hand-held ultrasound to assess fetal heart tones during labor. In addition, the

hospital no longer staffs an anesthesiologist after 7 p.m. The nurse is

concerned that it is not safe to provide obstetrical care to laboring women

due to the limited resources and inability to uphold national standards of

care. This challenge relates most directly to which dimension of health care?
