Answer to Question 1

A
The LPN involved in a restorative nursing research project works under the direction of the registered nurse. The RN serves as the principal investigator, which means designing the research, writing a proposal for funding, and ensuring the integrity of the research being done. The LPN is qualified to do items B, C, and D, assuming that the RN has properly instructed the LPN.

Answer to Question 2

B
Arthritis, heart disease, and sensory changes are the three most common chronic diseases of older adults. Diabetes mellitus (responses A, C, and D) is a chronic disease of older people, but not one of the most common. Influenza (response A) and pneumonia (response D) are acute illnesses that are serious for older adults because they are life-threatening when superimposed over a chronic disease process.
