Answer to Question 1

D
The process in which state boards of nursing act collectively is through the development and administration of licensure examinations for practical nurses (NCLEX-PN) and registered nurses (NCLEX-RN).

Answer to Question 2

D
Electronic communication is becoming more frequent with the advent of computers in client care units; the extent to which nurses are involved in sending and receiving information about client medications or supplies, or charting by computer, varies greatly by facility. Nurses may also be involved in telehealth, using technology to transmit health information from one site to another.
