Answer to Question 1

C
You approach individuals in the following order to consider organ or tissue donations: (1) spouse, (2) adult son or daughter, (3) parent, (4) adult brother or sister, (5) grandparent, and (6) guardian.

Answer to Question 2

D
The Patient Self-Determination Act (1991) requires health care institutions to inquire whether a patient has created an advance directive, give patients information on advance directives, and document whether a patient states that he or she has an advance directive. Notifying the family and attorney is breaking confidentiality. Asking how payment will be made is not required by law and is not the responsibility of the nurse.
