1. Select one setting and population (e.g. outpatient and primary care services, inpatient facilities and services, managed care and integrated organizations, long-term care, home and community-based services, and health services for special populations) and then critique system resources and approaches that may be leveraged to achieve the Institute of Medicine’s vision of a patient-centered and culturally competent health care system for the setting and population.
2. Discuss the difference between licensure, certification, and accreditation, and the Magnet Recognition Program of the American Nurses Credentialing Center. What is the role of the governing body of the organization in the areas of fiduciary responsibilities, credentialing, and performance management?
