Answer to Question 1

125 gtts/min
RAT: 1000 mL/8 hours = 125 mL/hr; 125 mL/60 minutes  60 gtts/mL = 125 gtts/min

Answer to Question 2

Stereotyping is generalizing characteristics of a culture as being the same for everyone within that cultural group. The nurse should avoid stereotyping when conducting assessments with clients of different cultures. The nurse is not demonstrating diversity, cultural sensitivity, or time management.
