Nursing Elites

1. What does intact mean?

• A. Damaged
• B. In place, unharmed
• C. Destroyed
• D. Incomplete

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'In place, unharmed.' 'Intact' refers to something that is whole, undamaged, or unharmed. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they describe states opposite to what intact means. 'Damaged,' 'Destroyed,' and 'Incomplete' all signify a lack of wholeness or harm, which is contrary to the meaning of intact.

2. What is the meaning of Contingent?

• A. Certain
• B. Dependent
• C. Unrelated
• D. Guaranteed

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct meaning of 'contingent' is dependent, indicating reliance on something else. Choice A, 'Certain,' is incorrect as it means clearly established or assured, which does not align with the meaning of 'contingent.' Choice C, 'Unrelated,' is also incorrect as it means not connected or associated with, which is a different concept. Choice D, 'Guaranteed,' is not synonymous with 'contingent' as it implies assurance or confirmation, not dependency.

3. What does the word 'rapport' mean in the sentence: 'The nurses and teenage aides developed a quick rapport'?

• A. Performance
• B. Narrative
• C. Manner
• D. Bond

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Bond.' In this context, 'rapport' refers to a close and harmonious relationship or connection between people. The sentence suggests that a bond or connection developed quickly between the nurses and teenage aides. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'rapport' does not relate to performance, narrative, or manner in this context.

4. What is a nit?

• A. abscess
• B. parasite
• C. bandage
• D. infection

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A nit is a kind of parasite, specifically the egg of a louse. Nits are typically found attached to hair close to the scalp and are commonly associated with head lice infestations. Choice A, 'abscess,' is incorrect as an abscess is a collection of pus caused by an infection. Choice C, 'bandage,' is incorrect as it is a material used for covering wounds. Choice D, 'infection,' is incorrect as it refers to the invasion and multiplication of microorganisms in body tissues.

5. Which word is NOT used correctly in the sentence? "You should always do the write thing."

• A. Do
• B. Always
• C. Write
• D. Should

Correct answer: C

Rationale: "Write" is incorrect in this context. It should be "right," referring to the correct or moral action.
