Healthcare reform will bring changes in the emphasis of care. Which
of the following models is expected from health care reform?
ANSWERS I am moving from an acute illness to a health promotion,
illness prevention model.
Healthcare reform also affects how healthcare is delivered. There is
greater emphasis on health promotion, disease prevention, and illness
management.
The nurses on an acute care medical floor notice an increase in
pressure ulcer formation in their patients. A nurse consultant decides
to compare two types of treatment. The first is the procedure
currently used to assess for pressure ulcer risk. The second uses a new
assessment instrument to identify at-risk patients. Given this
information, the nurse consultant exemplifies which career?
ANSWERS Nurse researcher.
The nurse researcher investigates problems by applying evidence-based
practice or by conducting research to improve nursing care and further
define and expand the scope of nursing practice. He or she often works
in an academic setting, hospital, or independent professional or
community service agency.

An 18-year-old woman is in the emergency department with fever and
cough. The nurse obtains her vital signs, listens to her lung and heart
sounds, determines her level of comfort, and collects blood and
sputum samples for analysis. Which standard of practice is
performed?
Assessment.
Assessment is the collection of comprehensive data pertinent to the
patient's health and/or the situation.
A male patient has been laid off from his construction job and has
many unpaid bills. He is going through a divorce from his marriage of
15 years and has been seeing his pastor to help him through this
difficult time. He does not have a primary health care provider
because he has never really been sick and his parents never took him
to a physician when he was a child. Which external variables influence
the patient's health practices?
ANSWERS Difficulty paying his bills.
Family practice of not routinely seeing a health care provider.
External factors impacting health practices include family beliefs and
economic impact. The way that patients' families use health care
services generally affects their health practices. Their perceptions of the
seriousness of diseases and their history of preventive care behaviors
(or lack of them) influence how patients think about health. Economic
variables may affect a patient's level of health by increasing the risk for
disease and influencing how or at what point the patient enters the
health care system.
When taking care of patients, a nurse routinely asks if they take any
vitamins or herbal medications, encourages family members to bring

in music that the patient likes to help the patient relax, and frequently
prays with her patients if that is important to them. The nurse is
practicing which model?
ANSWERS Holistic.
The nurse is using a holistic model of care that takes a more holistic
view of health by considering emotional and spiritual well-being and
other dimensions of an individual to be important aspects of physical
wellness. The holistic health model of nursing attempts to create
conditions that promote optimal health. Nurses using the holistic
nursing model recognize the natural healing abilities of the body and
incorporate complementary and alternative interventions such as music
therapy, reminiscence, relaxation therapy, therapeutic touch, and
guided imagery because they are effective, economical, noninvasive,
nonpharmacological complements to traditional medical care.
* Which of the following are symptoms of secondary traumatic stress
and burnout that commonly affect nurses?
Lack of interest in exercise.
Difficulty falling asleep.
Lack of desire to go to work.
Anxiety while working.
Nurses are particularly susceptible to the development of secondary
traumatic stress and burnout—the components of compassion fatigue.
Symptoms include decline in health, emotional exhaustion, irritability,
restlessness, impaired ability to focus and engage with patients, feelings
of hopelessness, inability to take pleasure from activities, and anxiety.

A nurse is presenting a program to workers in a factory covering safety
topics, including the wearing of hearing protectors when workers are
in the factory. Which level of prevention is the nurse practicing?
Primary prevention.
Primary prevention is aimed at health promotion and includes health
education programs, immunizations, and physical and nutritional fitness
activities. It can be provided to an individual and includes activities that
focus on maintaining or improving the general health of individuals,
families, and communities. It also includes specific protection such as
hearing protection in occupational settings.
