Answer to Question 1

D
Increasing the IV rate to 250 mL/hr if the blood pressure drops to 85/50

Answer to Question 2

C
The mission statement of any health care business or unit describes the purpose for the existence of the business or unit and the rationale that justifies that existence. The mission directs decision making about what is or is not within the purview of the business or unit. The vision statement is a logical extension of the mission and serves to establish long-range goals. Once the vision is established a strategic plan that identifies how to achieve the vision can be established.
