Answer to Question 1

B
Barrier precautions refer to the use of personal protective equipment (e.g., gowns, gloves) to minimize risk of exposure to blood and body fluids by creating a barrier between the person and the microorganism and preventing transmission of the microorganism. Nonsterile gloves should be applied before touching mucous membranes, nonintact skin, blood, body fluids, secretions, excretions, and contaminated items; a gown should be worn during procedures and client care activities with a high probability of generating splashes or sprays of blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions. Masks, eye protection, and face shields are to be worn when procedures and client care activities may generate splashes or sprays of blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions.

Answer to Question 2

A
Nightingale's major accomplishments include establishing the Nightingale Training School for Nurses at St. Thomas's Hospital in London and recognizing that there is a body of nursing knowledge distinct from medical knowledge.
