Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
In 1949, the Joint Committee on Practical Nurses and Auxiliary Workers in Nursing Services recommended the title licensed practical nurse to differentiate between the tasks of PNs and LPNs; the joint committee also recommended that LPNs work under the supervision of RNs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
World War II and the shortage of nurses it created greatly expanded the practice sites available to practical nurses. In the face of the nursing shortage, hospitals gradually increased the responsibilities designated for the practical nurse. The other options had a lesser impact on modern hospital nursing.
