Question 1 of 5

A nurse has assessed an aggregate, determined the priority health needs, and decided on what intervention to offer. Which will best determine if the intervention will be successful?

A. Accuracy of the nurse's assessment B. Careful planning and implementation of the intervention C. Determination of the aggregate's perspective of the need for the intervention D. Selection of appropriate evaluation measures both in process and on completion

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Interventions are seldom successful unless the aggregate has input into the determination of need and priority.

Question 2 of 5

Which must be created before establishing the evaluation plan for a health project?

A. A clear set of both short-term and long-term goals B. Decision as to who will collect the evaluation data C. Observable and measurable objectives D. Setting up a computer program to analyze the evaluation data

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Observable and measurable objectives determine whether or not the goal was achieved and if the project was successful.

Question 3 of 5

A nurse starts to collect evaluative data for a major health project one month after it starts. Which best describes the purpose of this data collection?

A. Filling out the forms helps the aggregate feel involved in the process. B. Formative evaluation allows the nurse to make changes if needed. C. Funding agencies require ongoing evaluations to continue contributing. D. The nurse needed to know if the desired outcomes were being achieved.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Formative evaluation assesses ongoing processes, allowing adjustments during implementation. Collecting data a month after initiation helps identify areas for improvement. It does not primarily serve to engage participants, satisfy funding requirements, or measure final outcomes.

Question 4 of 5

Which best describes the principal outcome of the Hill-Burton Act?

A. Increased number of hospital beds B. Increased availability of high technology in health care C. Reduced overall health care costs D. Required certificates of need before expensive new construction is started

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The Hill-Burton Act, also called the Hospital Survey and Construction Act, aimed to improve hospital access by funding hospital construction. It did not focus on high technology, cost reduction, or regulatory requirements for construction.

Question 5 of 5

Which best describes a flaw of many health care bills passed during the last four decades?

A. They avoided interfering with the current health care approach and did not improve problems of access or duplication of efforts. B. They encouraged each state to do what was best for its residents without consideration of what was best for the nation as a whole. C. They created new layers of bureaucracy in health care administration. D. They did not include financing to pay for the suggested changes.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Many health care bills attempted reforms but preserved existing structures, failing to address access, duplication, and cost concerns. The issues stemmed from resistance to systemic change rather than state autonomy, bureaucracy, or lack of financing.
