Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Feedback:
The biggest change in school nursing practice came in 1975 with the passage of the Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (Public Law 94-142). Children who had previously not been able to attend school because of chronic or complex medical issues were now entitled to a public education, and they began attending public schools.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, C, D
Feedback:
The school nurse must have skills in health assessment, including the ability to identify common problems that impact a child's learning, such as vision impairment, ADHD, and scoliosis. A school nurse would not be qualified to identify malignant melanomas or the need for orthodontia in children.
