Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The purpose of licensing laws for LPN/LVNs is to protect the public from unqualified practitioners. Licensing laws' purpose is not to limit the number of LPNs/LVNs, prevent malpractice, or increase revenue for the state board of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Standards of care define what should or should not be done for patients. The nurse practice act, scope of nursing practice, and professional organizations do not provide the best information as to what should or should not be done for patients.
