Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C
Continuing education updates the nurse's knowledge about the latest research and practice developments. In-service education programs are provided by a health care agency to increase the knowledge, skills, and competencies of nurses employed by the institution. Both can provide the nurse with continuing education credit. Master's degree programs are valuable for those in the role of nurse educator, nurse administrator, or advanced practice nurse. The DNP is a practice doctorate that prepares advanced practice nurses.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Harriet Tubman was active in the Underground Railroad movement and assisted in leading more than 300 slaves to freedom. Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, tended soldiers on the battlefields, cleansing their wounds, meeting their basic needs, and comforting them in death. As superintendent of the female nurses of the Union Army, Dorothea Lynde Dix organized hospitals, appointed nurses, and oversaw and regulated supplies to the troops. Mother Bickerdyke organized ambulance services and walked abandoned battlefields at night, looking for wounded soldiers.
