Answer to Question 1

C
The reasonable person standard is used by courts when dealing with cases of potential negligence and
malpractice to show what a reasonable nurse would do in a given situation. Reviewing the
organization's policies and procedures, evidence from the state's Nurse Practice Act, and the use of
expert witnesses to the standard of nursing practice in that community are all examples of aspects of
the reasonable person standard.

Answer to Question 2

D
Three specific attributes of establishing an evidence-based environment within an institution are (1)
create a capacity for change, (2) establish the culture, and (3) use the organizational infrastructure to
sustain and reinforce change.

Did you know?

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
