Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The occipital lobes process visual information. The frontal lobes of the cerebrum are the areas of the brain responsible for voluntary motor function, concentration, communication, decision making, and personality. The parietal lobes are responsible for the sense of touch, distinguishing the shape and texture of objects. The temporal lobes are concerned with the senses of hearing and smell.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, D
Administering an enteral feeding may be delegated, at the nurse's discretion, to UAP in accordance with state regulations and facility policies and procedures. The nurse should verify tube placement and assess the patient prior to delegating this procedure. The UAP can perform oral care and obtain vital signs and report results.
