Fundamentals of Nursing 10th Edition Potter Perry Test Bank
Chapter 1. Nursing Today
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Contemporary nursing practice is based on knowledge generated through nursing
theories.Florence Nightingales theory introduced the concept that nursing care
focuses on:
1 Psychological needs
2 A maximal level of wellness
3 Health maintenance and restoration
4 Interpersonal interactions with the client
ANS: 3
Florence Nightingale believed the role of the nurse was to put the clients body in the
best state inorder to remain free of disease or to recover from disease.
Although Florence Nightingale may have addressed meeting the psychological needs
of her clients, it is not the focus of her theory. The goal of Nightingales theory is to
facilitate the bodysreparative processes by manipulating the clients environment.
Florence Nightingale thought the human body had reparative properties of its own if it
was caredfor in a way to recover from disease. Her theory did not focus on achieving a
maximal level of wellness.
Florence Nightingale believed the nurse was in charge of the clients health. Although
she interacted with her clients by reading to them, her theory of nursing care did not
focus uponinterpersonal interactions.

ANS: 2

, The American Nurses Association (ANA) hires lobbyists at the state and federal level to

own state. The American Hospital Association does not focus on nurses

5. A nurse moves from Seattle to Boston and begins working in a hospital. The most
importantfactor for the nurse to consider when moving to another state is the:
1 Massachusetts Nurse Practice Act
2 Standard for nursing practice in Boston
3 Clinical ladder of mobility in the new hospital
4 Requirement for continuing education units (CEU) in
Massachusetts
ANS: 1
Although most states have similar practice acts, each individual state has its own
Nurse Practice Act that regulates the licensure and practice of nursing within that state.
Knowledge of the Nurse Practice Act is necessary to provide safe and legal nursing
care.
Standards of nursing practice are not specific to a city, but rather to the profession
itself. Although the clinical ladder of mobility may be of interest in regard to professional
advancement, it is not the most important factor when practicing nursing in another
state. Knowledge of the Nurse Practice Act in order to provide safe and legal nursing
care is of higherimportance.
Regardless of where a nurse practices, the nurse should strive to remain
current.DIF: C REF: 8 OBJ: Analysis
