Answer to Question 1

ANS: D, E
Nurses must be aware that they remain legally responsible for patient assessments and must make the critical judgments necessary to ensure patient safety when delegating tasks to unlicensed personnel. The nurse cannot delegate assessment, teaching, or evaluation. The two tasks that the nurse can delegate are vital signs on a stable postpartum client and assisting a stable postpartum client on the second postpartum day to take a shower.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, D, E
In surrogate parenting, conception may take place outside the body using ova and sperm from the couple who wishes to become parents. These embryos are then implanted into the surrogate mother, or the surrogate mother may be inseminated artificially with sperm from the intended father. Donated embryos may also be implanted into a surrogate mother. The couple does not need to be infertile. The surrogate parent does not need to have previously carried a pregnancy to term.
