ofnursing practice is the nurse following?
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

a. Assessment
b. Diagnosis
c. Planning

ANS: C ij

In planning, the registered nurse develops a plan that prescribes strategies and alternatives to
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

attain expected outcomes. During assessment, the registered nurse collects comprehensive
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

data pertinent to the patient’s health and/or the situation. In diagnosis, the registered nurse
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

analyzes the assessment data to determine the diagnoses or issues. During implementation,
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

theregistered nurse implements (carries out) the identified plan.

ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

ij beginnerANS: A ij ij

, A beginning nursing student or any nurse entering a situation in which there is no previous
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

level of experience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now practice in
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

home health) is an example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a patient’s
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

clinicalsituation as a whole, is able to assess an entire situation, and can readily transfer
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences to a situation. A competent nurse
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

understands the organization and specific care required by the type of patients (e.g., surgical,
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent practitioner who is able to
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

anticipate nursing care and establish long-range goals. A nurse who has had some level of
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

experience with the situation is an advanced beginner. This experience may only be
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

observational in nature, but the nurse is able to identify meaningful aspects or principles of
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij

nursing care.
