Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Although all these skills are valuable in nursing, it is highly recommended that the new graduate, whether LPN or RN, gain added clinical experience before being employed in home care. The level of autonomy requires a very sound clinical background, which often must be enhanced after graduation.

Answer to Question 2

B

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
