Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The nurse is vulnerable to the ergonomic hazard of lifting a heavy load. Other ergonomic hazards include reaching and lifting loads far from the body, twisting while lifting, and unexpected changes in load demand during a lift, among others. A nurse is not likely to face an ergonomic hazard when assisting the client with dressing, carrying medical equipment, or administering physiotherapy.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Teleology is ethical theory based on final outcomes. It is also known as utilitarianism because the ultimate ethical test for any decision is based on what is best for the most people. Deontology focuses on the morality of an act. Teleology does not prioritize historical precedent or the legal rights of the individual.
