Test Bank for Conceptual Foundations 7th
Edition by Friberg

, Chapter 01: A Brief History of the Professionalization of Nursing in the United States
Friberg: Conceptual Foundations: The Bridge to Professional Nursing, 7th Edition


MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Historically, women were considered the obvious choice for nursing sick patients, because:
a. caring for others was an extension of their homemaker role.
b. early nurses were nuns, so the public was used to women in nursing.
c. men, who had education, were reluctant to try nursing.
d. women were often at home anyway, so caregiving was easy.
ANS: A
Women’s domestic role (as homemakers and mothers) was naturally associated with the
caregiving required in nursing. Although religious orders did play a role in health care, it was
the domestic duties of women that set the stage for their involvement in nursing. Widespread
education for men and women is a fairly new phenomenon and did not play a role in the early
history of nursing. Women did not care for sick or injured strangers in their homes, so being at
home was irrelevant.

2. Florence Nightingale’s views about trained nurses were most influenced by her:
a. experiences in wartime.
b. ideas about sanitation.
c. relationships with physicians.
d. view of education.
ANS: A
Nightingale’s experiences in wartime demonstrated to her that trained nurses were valuable in
decreasing morbidity and mortality among soldiers. Nightingale had revolutionary ideas about
hospital sanitation, but these are not credited with her advocacy of using trained nurses. Early
trained nurses were taught to follow the directions of the physician; collegial relationships
were not a part of health care practice in Nightingale’s day. Nightingale’s views of education
were influenced by her opinion on the value of trained nurses, not the other way around.

3. A nursing instructor explains to students that the major goal of the Society of Superintendents
of Training Schools for Nurses of the United States and Canada was to:
a. improve working conditions for students.
b. obtain legal recognition for the profession.
c. raise and standardize the training of nurses.
d. reverse discrimination in admissions policies.
ANS: C
