Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The nursing profession emerged as a healing art characterized by its practitioners offering comfort, compassion, and caring that were equally (and perhaps sometimes more) important to patients' healing as the procedural tasks of caregiving. Nursing as a healing art does not mean that each nurse does not practice creatively nor does it mean that nurses paint their own canvas before helping someone else. Nursing as healing art also does not mean that challenges cannot be studied scientifically.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
A high blood glucose level, as shown by a glucose tolerance test, is the most reliable indicator. Although glycosuria is evident in younger diabetic patients, it may not occur in the elderly, even when they have hyperglycemia. Glaucoma and kidney failure may result from diabetes eventually, but they can also have other causes.
