3. He discusses the goal of the department. Which of the following statements is a goal?

• A. Increase the patient satisfaction rate
• B. Eliminate the incidence of delayed administration of medications
• C. Establish rapport with patients.
• D. Reduce response time to two minutes.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Option A, 'Increase the patient satisfaction rate,' is a goal because it represents an objective that the department aims to achieve. Patient satisfaction is a key indicator of quality care and reflects the department's commitment to providing excellent service. In contrast, options B, C, and D are more focused on specific actions or strategies rather than overarching goals. Eliminating delayed medication administration, establishing rapport with patients, and reducing response time are important tasks that may contribute to achieving the goal of increasing patient satisfaction, but they are not goals in themselves. Therefore, option A is the most appropriate choice as it directly addresses the department's ultimate objective of enhancing patient satisfaction.

4. Which of the following is NOT a major division of the nervous system?

• A. Peripheral nervous system
• B. Central nervous system
• C. Somatic nervous system
• D. Autonomic nervous system

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The somatic nervous system is actually a component of the peripheral nervous system, responsible for voluntary control of skeletal muscles and sensory information. The major divisions of the nervous system are the central nervous system (which includes the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (which includes all nerves outside the central nervous system). The autonomic nervous system, on the other hand, is a division of the peripheral nervous system responsible for involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion. Therefore, the correct answer is C, the somatic nervous system, as it is not a major division of the nervous system.

6. In a horizontal chart, the lowest level worker is located at the

• A. Leftmost box
• B. Middle
• C. Rightmost box
• D. Bottom

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In a horizontal chart, the lowest level worker is typically positioned at the leftmost side, with higher-level workers placed to the right. This arrangement signifies hierarchy, with the top level usually being on the rightmost side. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 'Middle,' as the lowest level worker is situated towards the left of the chart, not the extreme left or right. This positioning helps visually represent the organization's structure and indicates the progression from lower to higher levels as one moves from left to right on the chart.
