Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
The clinical nurse specialist has advanced experience and expertise in a specialized area of practice such as gerontology, and would be best suited to provide education on palliative care. The nurse researcher is responsible for the continued development and refinement of nursing knowledge and practice through the investigation of nursing problems. The nurse educator generally has specific clinical specialties and advanced clinical experience in a particular area. The nurse administrator is responsible for managing client care. Nurse practitioners typically provide direct care more often than leading and educating staff.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Sigma Theta Tau is the nursing honor society that extends membership invitations to students who demonstrate excellence in scholarship and nurses in the community who demonstrate excellence in leadership. The ANA is open to all licensed registered professional nurses. The AACN sets standards and publishes essential components of baccalaureate, master's and doctoral education in nursing. The NCSBN is responsible for NCLEX testing standards.
