MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which best describes the primary reason that Americans are concerned

about health care?

a. Politicians are discussing how to improve health care.
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



b. The media has provided mixed messages about the health care system.

The primary reason for the focus on health care is the constantly increasing
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



costs, which cannot be sustained. The costs of caring for the sick accounted
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



for the majority of escalating health care dollars, which increased from
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



5.7% of the gross domestic product in 1965 to 17.8% in 2015. Politicians
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



and the media both influence Americans‘ perceptions about health care;
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



however, they are not the primary reason why Americans are concerned.
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



The new healthcare system will change the health care access and
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



availability, but will not necessarily be offering any free services to
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



Americans.

2. A nurse has begun to lobby with politicians for changes to the health
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



care system. Why is thisinvolvement important?
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



a. Nurses, as central characters in several popular TV series, are currently very
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



visible in American IGB.CM

b. Nurses are primarily responUsiblSe foNr mT

our health care system.
S1 S1 S1 S1


c. Nurses are the largest segment of health care providers.
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1


d. Nurses are the only group that is employed both inside and outside
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1


of hospitals.
S1 S1




ANS: C S 1




As the largest segment of health care providers, nurses are informed about
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



the current health care system and all the problems that result from people
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



not seeking care until they are desperately ill. Nurses, as the American
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



Nurses Association (ANA) emphasize, usually believe that health care is a
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



right, not a privilege. Therefore, nurses, whose work is central to our
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



current health care delivery system, can also be instrumental in working
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



politically to create a health care delivery system that will meet health
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



needs. While nurses are in several current TV series and are employed both
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



inside and outside of hospitals, physicians and other health care providers
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



are as well. Nurses are often managers, but managers often have other
S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1 S1



backgrounds, such as business administration.
