Answer to Question 1

ANS: T
This prevents learning questionable shortcuts or improper technique.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: F
Some students are hired into apprenticeships before graduation enabling them to work in the OR in a limited capacity in anticipation of a permanent position. Schools that permit students to work while they are still participating in the education process should have a policy in place to delineate the student role from the employee role. Thus students may not work for compensation while completing clinical hours in the operating room setting.
