Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

The practice of nurse-midwifery in the United States was started in the 1920s by Mary Breckinridge and Hattie Hemschemeyer. Florence Nightingale was the founder of professional nursing. Lydia Hall is a nurse theorist who developed the Core, Care, and Cure theory. Jeanne Mance was the founder of the first hospital in North America, which was established in Montreal, Canada.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Dr. Ford and Dr. Silver developed the first nurse practitioner program in 1965 as a result of the disparity of primary care physicians during the Vietnam conflict. They did not develop the clinical specialist role, graduate program in nursing, or group practice.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
