Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Duty is what the theory of deontology represents. It is the nurse's duty to remain at work until a competent replacement arrives. Leaving before the night nurse arrives is patient abandonment and can result in license suspension.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Utilitarianism is the doctrine that what is useful is good and the determining consideration of right conduct should be the usefulness of its consequences. In other words, determining what is right is based on the greatest benefit for the greatest number of people.
