Answer to Question 1

D
The value and necessity for client safety and professionals' accountability, along with accurate data for system and clinical evaluation, is the more urgent issue in establishing a standardized nursing language.
The value and necessity in contracts and service specifications has been an invisible aspect of nursing.
More recently the argument has shifted from the issue of visibility to the value and necessity for client safety and professionals' accountability.
The value and necessity in health policy decisions has been an invisible aspect of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

D
Proper hand hygiene is the best way to prevent the spread of bacteria. Monthly in-services place emphasis on education, not on action. Biohazard bags are appropriate but cannot be used on every item that C. difficile comes in contact with, such as a human. Mandatory cultures are expensive and unnecessary and would not prevent the spread of bacteria.
