The nurse is reviewing the sources of funding for the local community health intervention program on smoking cessation. In the federal grant proposal,
the nurse elaborates on all the various local organizations and private foundations that have pledged to support the program after initial funding from the grant ends. The nurse also explains the plan for ongoing fundraising efforts for the program for years to come. With these comments, the nurse is attempting to establish which essential component of funding?
A) Sustainability
B) Program replication
C) Clinical expertise
D) Accountability
Ans: A
Feedback:
Sustainability is an important consideration in program planning and a key factor in grant making. Most funding agencies expect programs to give a clear and convincing plan outlining how efforts started with grant funding will be continued after the grant ends. Accountability includes regular communication about how funds were used, details of program activities, and progress toward achieving program goals. The ability to replicate or reproduce a successful program within a different community or with a new population aggregate is a test of the strength of the design of an intervention. The explanation provided in the grant request does not mention the nurse's clinical expertise.
