Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: The role of the professional nurse was greatly influenced by society. These attitudes helped and hindered the profession of nursing. In the 19th century, scientific knowledge was considered the domain of men, and the nurse was simply the handmaiden of the physician. The other options were popular attitudes during the 1800s.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: During the Crimean War in Great Britain, Florence Nightingale recruited nurses to provide care to the injured, and created the beginnings of modern nursing. Other wars contributed many nursing heroes, but the Crimean War and Nightingale were the major influence on the profession of nursing.
