standard of nursing practice is the caregiver following?
a. Assessment
b. Diagnosis
c. Planning
d. Implementation
ANSWER:->>> C
EXPLANATION: In planning, the registered caregiver develops a plan that prescribes
strategies and alternatives to attain expected outcomes. During assessment, the registered
caregiver collects comprehensive data pertinent to the CLIENT’s health and/or the situation.
In diagnosis, the registered caregiver analyzes the assessment data to determine the diagnoses
or issues. During implementation, the registered caregiver implements (carries out) the
identified plan.

level of proficiency is the caregiver upon initial transition to the obstetrical floor?
a. Novice
b. Proficient
c. Competent
d. Advanced beginner
ANSWER:->>> A

, EXPLANATION: A beginning nursing student or any caregiver entering a situation in which
there is no previous level of experience (e.g., an experienced operating room caregiver
chooses to now practice in home health) is an example of a novice caregiver. A proficient
caregiver perceives a CLIENT’s clinical situation as a whole, is able to assess an entire
situation, and can readily transfer knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences to a
situation. A competent caregiver understands the organization and specific care required by
the type of CLIENTs (e.g., surgical, oncology, or orthopedic CLIENTs). This caregiver is a
competent practitioner who is able to anticipate nursing care and establish long-range goals.
A caregiver who has had some level of experience with the situation is an advanced beginner.
This experience may only be observational in nature, but the caregiver is able to identify
meaningful aspects or principles of nursing care.

more fluids. The caregiver then encourages the CLIENT to drink more fluids. Which concept
is the caregiver demonstrating?
a. Licensure
b. Autonomy
c. Certification
d. Accountability
ANSWER:->>> B
EXPLANATION: Autonomy is an essential element of professional nursing that involves the
initiation of independent nursing interventions without medical orders. To obtain licensure in
the United States, the RN candidate must pass the NCLEX-RN. Beyond the NCLEX-RN,
the caregiver may choose to work toward certification in a specific area of nursing practice.
Accountability means that you are responsible, professionally and legally, for the type and
quality of nursing care provided.

b. Manager
c. Advocate
d. Caregiver
ANSWER:->>> B

delivering nursing care and has personnel, policy, and budgetary responsibility for a specific
nursing unit or facility. As an educator, you explain concepts and facts about health, describe
the reason for routine care activities, demonstrate procedures such as self-care activities,
reinforce learning or CLIENT behavior, and evaluate the CLIENT’s progress in learning. As
a CLIENT advocate, you protect your CLIENT’s human and legal rights and provide
assistance in asserting these rights if the need arises. As a caregiver, you help CLIENTs
maintain and regain health, manage disease and symptoms, and attain a maximal level
function and independence through the healing process.

research findings to clinical nursing. The DNP is a practice doctorate that prepares advanced
practice caregivers such as caregiver practitioners.

Caregivers Association. Which type of education did the caregiver receive?
a. Graduate education
b. Inservice education
c. Continuing education
d. Registered caregiver education
ANSWER:->>> C

organizations, and educational and health care institutions. After obtaining a baccalaureate
degree in nursing, you can pursue graduate education leading to a master’s or doctoral degree
in any number of graduate fields, including nursing. Inservice education programs are
