Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, D, E
Every person is granted freedom from bodily contact by another person, unless consent is granted. In all health care agencies, informed and voluntary consent is needed for admission (for routine treatment), for each specialized diagnostic procedure or medical or surgical treatment, and for any experimental treatments or procedures. Elements of informed consent include disclosure, comprehension, competence, and voluntariness.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
In institutions, most controlled substances must be kept secure and monitored closely in accordance with institutional and state regulations. Failure to do so may lead to disciplinary action against the nurse's license.
