Answer to Question 1

C, F
Medical errors contribute to cases of malpractice and other types of torts in health care. Licensed practicing nurses should have the knowledge to safely practice as a nurse in their state. Medication errors are some of the more common medical errors noted; hence a good working knowledge of the six rights of medication administration is recommended. These six rights are: 1) right patient; 2) right medication; 3) right time; 4) right dose; 5) right route; and 6) right documentation.

Answer to Question 2

D
Effective teams are comprised of individuals who possess certain characteristics conducive to good
team function: time management skills (enhance the ability to effectively manage their time and tasks),
critical thinking skills, and motivation and the tendency to be proactive (take charge of their personal
and professional lives and tend to be proactive rather than reactive to situations and events).
