Answer to Question 1

C
Socialization occurs at three important points in a nurse's career: when a new graduate leaves the educational setting and begins work as a professional nurse; when an experienced nurse changes work settings; and when the nurse takes on new roles, such as returning to school. The hope is that graduates will leave school with changes in behaviors and attitudes that reflect their new status as baccalaureate-prepared nurses.
It would be important for graduates to have a strong understanding of the subjects they encounter when they are back in school, but this choice is too narrow to support meeting broad goals.
Nurses articulating that the BSN should be required is too narrow in focus to demonstrate that the program's goals have been met.

Answer to Question 2

B
During the Spanish-American War, trained nurses cared for soldiers suffering from yellow fever. This convinced the military and Congress of the need for qualified nurses and set the stage for the eventual creation of the Army Nurse Corps in 1901 and the Navy Nurse Corps in 1908.
During the Civil War, both sides wanted women to care for injured and ill soldiers, but these women were mostly untrained volunteers from the middle and upper classes.
World War I occurred after the creation of the Army Nurse Corps and the Navy Nurse Corps.
World War II occurred after the creation of the Army Nurse Corps and the Navy Nurse Corps.
