Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Student nurses are legally and ethically responsible for giving the same safe nursing care that nurses provide. Avoidance of arousing the anger of the instructor is not a valid reason. The remaining options are not the most important reasons

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Restoring optimal physical, emotional, and spiritual health to patients is a frequently used statement that describes the goal of health care. Prevention of communicable diseases is a narrow statement and does not best describe the goal of the health care team. The remaining options are not goals of the health care team.
