Answer to Question 1

D
The formulation of the NMDS was an effort to standardize the collection of essential nursing information for comparison of nursing data across patient populations.

Answer to Question 2

C
The most common source of legal liability for nurses and nurse managers is a tort. Negligent acts or omissions (unintentional torts) and various intentional acts (intentional torts), such as invasion of privacy or assault and battery, commonly arise in clinical nursing practice (Aiken, 2004).
