After successfully implementing and managing a smoking cessation program in an inner-city neighborhood for 5 years, the group expands the efforts to include a nearby rural community
After a challenging first year, the nurse finds that with a few modifications the program is proving successful in the rural setting, as well. Which essential component of program design has been established by success in the rural community?
A) Sustainability
B) Program replication
C) Clinical expertise
D) Accountability
Ans: B
Feedback:
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. 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 explanation provided in the grant request does not mention the nurse's clinical expertise.
