Answer to Question 1

C
Nosocomial infection is an infection that is acquired while in a health care facility that was not present or incubating at the time of a client's admission. They can also become symptomatic after discharge. The best prevention is good hand washing techniques.

Answer to Question 2

A
Intellectual wellness involves critical thinking and problem solving, sound decision making, and the continuous desire to learn. Nurses must be lifelong students to remain current with the many changes in health care and nursing so they can make the best possible decisions about client care.
