Answer to Question 1

B
An important aspect of an eye examination is to determine if the patient wears contact lenses, especially in patients who are unresponsive. To determine whether a contact lens is present, stand to the side of the patient's eye and observe the cornea for the presence of a soft or rigid lens. It is also important to observe the sclera to detect the presence of a lens that has shifted off the cornea. An undetected lens causes severe corneal injury when left in place too long. Never assume that glasses were lost or were not worn. Contacting ambulance personnel takes time. Examine the eyes.

Answer to Question 2

D

C The team nursing model was developed in response to a nursing shortage following World War II and is not considered an emerging model.
D The Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (2006) has developed evidence-informed best practice guidelines for collaborative practice. There is a call for interprofessional team and collaborative practice models including team, primary, and case management.
