Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
All of the philosophic discussions about the role of the nurse must return to the
reality of the nurse's role as legally defined in the state's practice act. Nurse practice acts define
the specific legal parameters for nursing practice in a state. The AAN, NLN, and nursing
journals do not make these determinants.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The majority of client assaults occur in psychiatric mental health settings.
