Answer to Question 1

ANS: E
The National Association of Medical Examiners identifies five acceptable options for recording manner of death: (1) natural, (2) accident, (3) suicide, (4) homicide, and (5) undetermined.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Few specialties existed at the time the Factory Nurses Conference was created. Industrial nurses were practicing in single-nurse settings and recognized the benefit of uniting as a group for the purpose of sharing ideas with peers practicing in the same nursing arena. External funding was not available. This group was open only to graduate, state-registered nurses affiliated with the ANA.
