Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
If the situation seems critical, the nurse should act accordingly. After a decision is made, the nurse should follow through, and make sure the situation is safely resolved. Then, the nurse should evaluate the situation as it evolves, keeping in mind that revisions may need to be made continuously. After a crisis, such as a code, the nurse should debrief the entire team to allow venting of feelings and to determine the best action to take in the event of another similar emergency.

Answer to Question 2

A
