Answer to Question 1

A
One aspect of criminal law affecting nursing practice is the state and federal requirement that criminal background checks be performed. This is an attempt to protect the most vulnerable citizens. Another area of criminal law which affects nursing practice is the prohibition against substance abuse. Both federal and state laws require health care organizations to keep a strict accounting of the use and distribution of regulated drugs. Health care facilities can perform random drug screens on nurses and all employees as well as drug screens for a condition of employment.

Answer to Question 2

B
Several categories of public law affect the practice of nursing. The nurse accommodates patients' constitutional right to practice their religion every time the nurse calls a patient's clergy as requested, follows a specific religious custom for the preparation of meals, or prepares a deceased person's remains for burial.
