Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2, 3, 5

Nurses have specific human rights, obligations, and responsibilities arising from the following human rights domains within nursing; (1) nursing ethics, (2) nurses as victims of human rights violations, (3) imprisonment of nurses, (4) human rights of nurses in conflict, (5) nurses and the infliction of punishment, (6) nurses working in inadequate conditions, (7) forensic nurses, (

refugee claimants, (9) reproductive rights, (10) health equity and access to care, (11) human subjects research, and (12) palliative care. Telenursing and infusion therapy are not areas of nursing identified as affecting human rights.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Certification involves an application and examination and also requires a self-reflective self-assessment. Eligibility criteria include contact hour minimum, active practice requirement, licensure, and graduation specifications. Years in nursing, age, and location are not required for a basic HN-BC certification.
