Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A temporary permit allows a graduate practical or vocational nurse to work until the results of the NCLEX-PN examination are in. The temporary permit is automatically revoked once these results are available. Passing the NCLEX-PN exam allows employment as a fully licensed practical or vocational nurse (LPN or LVN). If the examination is failed, the temporary permit is surrendered.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
One must apply for the permit on program completion if wishing to work. One works as a GP/VN, not as a fully licensed LPN/LVN. The temporary work permit and the application to take the examination are not dependent on one another. The temporary permit is revoked once the NCLEX-PN examination is reported. If the examination is passed, the individual works as a fully licensed LPN/LVN. If the examination is failed, the individual must surrender the permit and work as a nursing assistant.
