Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The graduate nurse should take a notebook and pen to orientation because a lot of important information will be shared, and it is important to be prepared to take notes. Clothing will be determined by facility policy, and could be street clothing for the first few days. Time to arrive will be determined by many factors; the graduate nurse should ensure she is ready to begin work at the designated time. Lunch is not the most important preparation for the new employee to make.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Older clients are at increased risk for identity theft and scams, so it is important, when teaching the elder to use the computer, to also discuss the risks inherent with sharing personal information.
