Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Nurses face ethical and legal issues associated with the provision of care in mass casualty events (MCE). They are also challenged as they decide what care to provide to the patients they are caring for during a disaster. Communication among the various emergency team members must be concise, accurate, and timely during an MCE. Nurses must use their knowledge to foster better communication.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B

Social justice is upholding fairness on a social scale. This value is demonstrated in professional practice when the nurse works to ensure equal treatment under the law and equal access to quality health care. Human dignity is respect for the worth and uniqueness of individuals and populations. Altruism is concern for the welfare and well-being of others. Integrity is acting in accordance with an appropriate code of ethics and accepted standards of practice.
