Answer to Question 1

1,3,5
Rationale 1: Nurses should wash their hands with soap and water at the beginning of each shift, and when visibly soiled.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3
Rationale: Temperature, pulse, and respirations should be assessed at every visit. Blood pressures are not normally checked on healthy infants, and there would be no need to perform a pain assessment on a healthy baby unless the history or other data collected indicated the possibility of pain.
