Answer to Question 1

D
Type A fire extinguishers are used for paper, wood, draperies, upholstery, or rubbish. Type B and C fire extinguishers are used for flammable liquids, flammable gases, or electrical fires.

Answer to Question 2

B
Factors affecting decision-making include internal and external factors. An individual's perception can be influenced by physical and emotional states, and personal characteristics. External factors include environmental conditions and time. Unpredictable events and uncertainty in clinical settings can influence the availability of intellectual courage to think something new and different from one's peers and then act on those thoughts. Independent thinking is a hallmark of persons who think critically and creatively. Barriers to creative thinking include: rigid mindset; practice guided by tradition, habit, routines, or rituals; stereotypical perception of patient care is not individualized; unwilling to take risks or look for alternative strategies; resistant to change; hasty decision-making; decisions not supported by rationale; failure to evaluate effectiveness of nursing actions; and fear of making mistakes.
