Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Nursing programs are based on the nursing theories. These theories provide a skeleton on which to hang knowledge. They help to develop problem-solving skills systemically. Nursing theories are often expressed in relation to factors such as mind, body, spirit, and emotions. Most theories also include a definition of health.

Feedback:
The practical Nurse's Pledge is recited by LPNs at graduation. RNs recite the Florence Nightingale Pledge. Licensing laws, often referred to as a Nurse Practice Act, protect the public from unqualified workers. The purpose of the NFLPN is to provide standards of nursing care, promote continued postlicensure education and certification, and interpret the role and function of an LPN.
