1. Which statement accurately describes the primary purpose of the state nurse practice act (NPA)?

b. To define the scope of LPN/LVN practice.
c. To improve the quality of care provided by the LPN/LVN.
d. To limit the LPN/LVN employment placement.

While improving quality of care provided by the LPN/LVN may be a result of the NPA, the primary purpose of the NPA of each
state defines the scope of nursing practice in that state.

a. Ask a more experienced nurse to demonstrate the procedure.
b. Look up the procedure in the procedure manual.
c. Attempt to perform the procedure with supervision.
d. Inform the charge nurse of her lack of training in this procedure.

d. “Am I going to have to go to a nursing home?”
