Answer to Question 1

B
Learning disability is a generic term that refers to a heterogeneous group of disorders manifested as significant difficulties in the acquisition and use of listening, speaking, reading, writing, reasoning, or mathematical abilities. Having a learning disability will not prohibit a student's success, but the student needs to be aware of his or her different abilities.

Answer to Question 2

A
To create environments conducive to caring, health care organizations must introduce greater flexibility into the work environment structure, reward experienced nurse mentors, offer programs for compassion fatigue, improve nurse staffing, and provide nurses with autonomy over their practice. A reliance on technology and cost-effective health care strategies and efforts to standardize and refine work processes all undermine the nature of caring.
