D) Clinic supervisor
Ans: A
Feedback:
Nurse practitioners, educated in primary care, often practice in ambulatory care settings that focus on gerontology, pediatrics, family or adult health, or women's health. Case coordinators and clinical supervisors do not necessarily require an advanced degree, and a clinical nurse specialist is not educated in primary care. Primary care is the specific focus of CNPs.
