Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A member of the nursing profession must report behavior that does not meet established standards. Unethical behavior involves failing to perform the duties of a competent caring nurse.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Most states have some type of articulation program in which the LPN/LVN can achieve advanced standing in an RN program without having to enroll in the entire curriculum. Repetition, exclusion, and coexistence do not refer to educational advancement.
