Which of the following is considered a social determinant of health?

A. Diversity, which emphasizes the importance of inclusivity and respect for the varied backgrounds and perspectives within the nursing community.
B. Professionalism is another key value, highlighting the need for integrity, responsibility, and excellence in the nursing profession.
C. Advocacy is also central to the NSNA's ethical framework, as it involves working on behalf of others to promote health and well-being.
D. While Safety is a crucial aspect of nursing practice, it is not explicitly listed as part of the NSNA's core values according to the information available.
E. Quality Education is recognized as a fundamental value, ensuring that student nurses receive the knowledge and training necessary to provide high-quality care.
F. While confidentiality is a crucial aspect of nursing practice, it is not explicitly listed as part of the NSNA's core values according to the information available.

A. Used razors should never be disposed of in regular wastebaskets as they pose a significant risk for puncture injuries. Instead, they should be placed in a designated sharps container to prevent accidental cuts or injuries to anyone handling the waste.
B. The practice of using two hands to recap a needle is not recommended because it increases the risk of a needlestick injury. Instead, nurses should use a one-handed technique or a safety device designed for recapping needles to minimize the risk of injury.
C. Needles should not be broken off from syringes before disposal, as this can create sharp edges that can puncture the skin and lead to injuries. Instead, syringes with needles should be disposed of intact in a designated sharps container.
D. Sharps containers should be replaced when they are full to ensure safe disposal of needles and other sharp instruments. Overfilled containers can pose a risk of needlestick injuries and may not allow for proper disposal of new sharps.
