Answer to Question 1

B
Attributes are also sometimes referred to as strengths and weaknesses. Positive attributes for nurses include, for example, caring and compassion.

Answer to Question 2

B
There are no known ways that will ensure you will become a caring professional. For those who find caring a normal part of their life, caring is a product of their culture, values, experiences, and relationships with others. Persons who do not experience care in their lives often find it difficult to act in caring ways. As nurses deal with health and illness in their practice, most grow in the ability to care. Caring nurses use a caring approach in each patient encounter.
