NURS 124 EXAM QUESTIONS AND 100% CORRECT ANSWERSwhat is self regulation -Answer : Self-regulation recognizes that profession is in a better
position to determine standards for education and practice, and to ensure standards
are met.
Self-regulation is a privilege and a responsibility given by government to a profession,
for example registered nurses, to govern themselves. In essence, society contracts with
the registered nursing profession to regulate its own members in order to protect the
public from harm that could be caused by registered nurses in the course of their
practice.
Nursing education standards There are nursing education standards for each regulator
that are utilized to measure programs against. The review process is defined as "a
systematic assessment conducted by the provincial/territorial regulatory body for the
purposes of approving or recognizing the nursing education program so that graduates
from that program are considered eligible to continue in the registration process.". The
same may not assume that the graduates will, therefore, be eligible for the registration
of any programs that are not approved by the regulatory body. Those that may be
approved or otherwise recognized by a regulatory body may be listed on the website of
the regulatory body.
Faculty decisions include how the competencies and standards of practice are placed in
different nursing courses, what courses are required, how courses are structured and
sequenced, what learning activities and practice experiences with clients are required
at different stages of the program, evaluation to ensure safe care with clients and the
policies used to decide whether a student will pass or fail. The majority of the Canadian
regulatory bodies review nursing education programs regularly to ensure that students
are taught standards of practice and competencies, in order to be eligible to register to
practice nursing upon graduation.
Metaparadigm - Person: receiver of care from the nurse Health: more than the absence
of disease, a person's ability to use all of one's human powers Environment: external
(e.g., fresh air) and internal (e.g., intake) factors Nursing: changing and/or regulating
the environmental factors to execute laws of health
Which model is Patricia Benner most known for? - Answer From Novice to expert
, Dr. Laurie Gottlieb - Response Dr. Laurie Gottlieb (Gottlieb, 2013) has stated that
nursing (and health care) has traditionally been based on a deficit model of care.
Strengths- based nursing care
This paper is predicated on a model created by the McGill University nursing program; it
represents reframing the individual, family and community strengths as the basis for
nursing care.
Nursing theories - Answer Grand nursing theories are highly abstract and serve to
frame disciplinary knowledge that are not specific to any particular areas of practice or
client situations (Higgins & Moore, 2000, p 180). As the concepts addressed in grand
theory are highly abstract, they cannot be tested directly
The midrange or middle-range theories are narrower theories. They serve as a bridge
between grand nursing and practice-level theories. They are narrow enough to be
useful as guides to practice and research, yet broad enough to be used with multiple
client populations and concepts.
comfort theory Kolcaba's early writings described types of comfort such as relief, ease
and transcendence and the contexts in which comfort occurs: physical, psychospiritual,
environmental and social.
disability Within a health context, disability is considered from medical, disability and
social models. In the medical model, the health care provider is the powerful one, the
client a victim unable to function normally, in a psychological loss without the health
care provider. The client of the disability model is seen as the result of a tragedy to be
adjusted to and overcome, oppressed because of inability. The social model of
disability, on the other hand, focusses on the limits imposed upon the client through the
space-environment, context-where the client interacts. This model is concerned with
the patient's relation to others in the environment. One aspect is if space facilitates
those relationships or not.
change behaviour-self - Response An action the client is willing to employ to meet health
outcomes.
self efficacy behaviour - Answer The judgment a person makes of his or her personal
ability to organize and carry out a particular course of action.
professional competencies - Answer Professional competencies provide benchmarks
