Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Option C alone does not constitute harassment. The other options are incorrect because they are not appropriate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The nurse manager can talk with the nurse and find out what is going on, but if substance abuse is suspected, it must be reported. The other options do not address mandatory reporting of these actions.
