Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D
The International Association of Forensic Nurses explains that forensic nursing is the practice of nursing where the health and legal systems intersect (ANA, 2009). Thus, the forensic nurse's role provides a vital link between the health care system, the investigative process, and courts of law (Lynch, 2011). Officers of the court and police officers would be two key populations with whom the nurse would interact. The nurse would be less likely to interact with case managers, physicians, psychologists, and social workers.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
During pregnancy, many female clients will prefer female health care providers and may refuse to be examined by a man. People from Arab Muslim countries feel even more strongly about males touching a female.
