3. The main purpose of certification is to:
xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. assure the consumer that you will not make a mistake.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
b. prepare for graduate school. xx xx xx
c. promote magnet status for your facility.
xx xx xx xx xx
d. validate knowledge of critical care nursing.
xx xx xx xx xx
ANS: D xx
Certification assists in validating knowledge of the field, promotes excellence in the profession, and
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
helps
xx nurses to maintain their knowledge of critical care nursing. Certification helps to assure the
x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
consumer that the nurse has a minimum level of knowledge; however, it does not ensure
xx xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
that care will be mistake-free.
xx xx xx xx xx
Certification does not prepare one for graduate school; however, achieving certification demonstrates
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
x motivation for achievement and professionalism. Magnet facilities are rated on the number of
x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
certified nurses; however, that is not the purpose of certification.

4. The synergy model of practice focuses on:
xx xx xx xx xx xx
a. allowing unrestricted visiting for the patient 24 hours each day.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
b. holistic and alternative therapies.
xx xx xx
c. needs of patients and their families, which drives nursing competency.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
d. patients needs for energy and support.
xx xx xx xx xx
ANS: C xx
The synergy model of practice states that the needs of patients and families influence and
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
drive competencies of nurses. Nursing practice based on the synergy model would involve tailored
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
visiting to meet the patients and familys needs and application of alternative therapies if desired
xx xx xx xx xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
by the patient, but that is not the primary focus of the model.

xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx

critical care nursing practice?
xx xx xx xx
a. Evidence-based practice xx

c. National Patient Safety Goals xx xx xx
d. Nursing
process ANS: D
xx xx xx
The AACN Standards for Acute and Critical Care Nursing Practice delineate the nursing process as
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
applied to critically ill patients: collect data, determine diagnoses, identify expected outcomes,
xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
develop a plan of care, implement interventions, and evaluate care. AACN promotes a healthy work
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
environment, but this is not included in the Standards. The Joint Commission has established National
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
Patient Safety Goals, but these are
xx xx not the AACN Standards.

7. The charge nurse is responsible for making the patient assignments on the critical care unit. She
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
assigns the experienced, certified nurse to care for the acutely ill patient with sepsis who also
xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
requires continuous renal replacement therapy and mechanical ventilation. She assigns the nurse with
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
less than 1 year of experience to
xx xx xx two patients who are more stable. This assignment reflects
xx xx xx xx x x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
implementation of the:

a. crew resource management model
