Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Phoebe was the first deaconess and visiting nurse. Saint Paula established inns and hospitals for pilgrims. Fabiola was the namesake of the first free hospital in Rome in 390 AD. Saint Helena established the first gerontological facility.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Florence Nightingale believed that nursing was to put the client in the best condition for nature to act on him. According to her, the nurse should spend time caring for the clients rather than keeping the environment clean. The nurse can also teach the client about general care and precautions to be taken; this helps minimize the risk of problems in the future.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
