Which type of evaluation focuses on whether goals and objectives of a health program have been achieved?

A learning objective that measures a patient’s level of remembering the signs and symptoms of infection would use the verb “state” because it indicates that the patient is able to recall and verbally express the information.

Choice B is not the correct answer because “distinguish” implies that the patient is able to differentiate between two or more things, which is not the same as simply remembering information.

Choice C is not the correct answer because “develop” implies that the patient is creating something new, which is not relevant to remembering information.

Choice D is not the correct answer because “demonstrate” implies that the patient is able to show or prove something through their actions, which is not the same as simply remembering information.

Structure measures give consumers a sense of a health care provider’s capacity, systems, and processes to provide high-quality care.

For example, the ratio of providers to patients.

Choice A: Process measures indicate what a provider does to maintain or improve health, either for healthy people or for those diagnosed with a health care condition.

Choice B: Dependent measures is not a type of measure used to assess and compare the quality of health care organizations.

Choice C: Outcome measures reflect the impact of the health care service or intervention on the health status of patients.
