Answer to Question 1

D
Within a community nursing center, the role of the nurse is to treat patients' responses to health problems and promote health and wellness. Promoting comfort and pain relief measures is the role of a hospice nurse. Serving as a case manager is the role of the nurse within a managed care organization. Performing assessments and providing emergency care is a role of a nurse within a rural primary care hospital.

Answer to Question 2

C
Sterilization is the total elimination of all microorganisms, including spores. Disinfection is the elimination of pathogens except spores from inanimate objects. A germicide is a chemical that can be applied to both animate and inanimate objects for the purpose of eliminating pathogens. Medical asepsis uses practices to reduce the number, growth, and spread of microorganisms. Medical asepsis is also referred to as clean technique.. Objects are generally referred to as clean or dirty in medical asepsis. Clean objects are considered to have some microorganisms that are not pathogenic. Dirty objects are considered to have a high number of microorganisms, some that are potentially pathogenic. Common medical aseptic measures used for clean or dirty objects are handwashing, gloving, changing linens daily, and cleaning floors and hospital furniture daily.
