Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The new graduate should purchase private malpractice insurance in addition to that of the institution to ensure that there is personal liability coverage. The private policy will cover the new graduate at any nursing job in which they are employed. No malpractice insurance policy can guarantee that there will not be any lawsuit or loss of license.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Somatic pain arises from the musculoskeletal system and is aching, stabbing, or throbbing. Visceral pain arises from the internal organs and is described as cramping, dull, or squeezing. Neuropathic pain arises from the neurologic system and is described as tingling, burning, or shooting.
