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
