Answer to Question 1

B
Nurses who float (are temporarily reassigned to anther unit) should inform the supervisor of their lack of experience in caring for clients on a particular nursing unit. They also should request, and be given, orientation to the unit. Asking to work with an experienced general surgery nurse would be an appropriate action.
Refusing to accept an assignment may be considered insubordination; and clients will suffer if there is a reduction in the number of available staff.
The nurse can make a written protest to nursing administrators, but it should not be the nurse's initial recourse.
Notifying the Canadian Nurses Association should not be the nurse's initial recourse. The nurse should first notify the supervisor and request appropriate orientation and training.

Answer to Question 2

D
Reaction is how a person responds to a perceived stimulus. Perception occurs when the person becomes conscious of stimuli and interprets information signals. Reception refers to receiving stimuli and creating a nerve impulse. Sensation is the combination of all three combined.
