jdischarge jgoals jwill jbe jdeveloped jwith jthe jpatient‘s jinput. jThe jpatient jstates, j―How jis jthis
jdifferent jfrom jwhat jthe jdoctor jdoes?‖ jWhich jresponse jwould jbe jmost jappropriate jfor jthe
jnurse jto jmake?
a. ―The jrole jof jthe jnurse jis jto jadminister jmedications jand jother jtreatments
jprescribed jby jyour jdoctor.‖
b. ―The jnurse‘s jjob jis jto jhelp jthe jdoctor jby jcollecting jinformation
jand jcommunicating jany jproblems jthat joccur.‖
c. ―Nurses jperform jmany jof jthe jsame jprocedures jas jthe jdoctor, jbut jnurses jare
jwith jthe jpatients jfor ja jlonger jtime jthan jthe jdoctor.‖
d. ―In jaddition jto jcaring jfor jyou jwhile jyou jare jsick, jthe jnurses jwill jassist
jyou jto jdevelop jan jindividualized jplan jto jmaintain jyour jhealth.‖

ANS: j D
This jresponse jis jconsistent jwith jthe jAmerican jNurses jAssociation j(ANA) jdefinition jof

jdescribe jsome jof jthe jdependent jand jcollaborative jfunctions jof jthe jnursing jrole jbut jdo jnot

ANS: j D
Evidence-based jpractice j(EBP) jis jthe juse jof jthe jbest jresearch-based jevidence jcombined
jwith jclinician jexpertise. jClinical jjudgment jbased jon jthe jnurse‘s jclinical jexperience jis jpart
jof jEBP, jbut jclinical jdecision jmaking jshould jalso jincorporate jcurrent jresearch jand
jresearch-based jguidelines. jEvaluation jof jpatient joutcomes jis jimportant, jbut jinterventions

jproviding jpatient jcare. jWhich jstatement, jif jmade jby jthe jstudent jnurse, jindicates jthat
jteaching jwas jsuccessful?
a. ―The jnursing jprocess jis ja jscientific-based jmethod jof jdiagnosing jthe
jpatient‘s jhealth jcare jproblems.‖
b. ―The jnursing jprocess jis ja jproblem-solving jtool jused jto jidentify jand jtreat jpatients‘
health jcare jneeds.‖
c. ―The jnursing jprocess jis jused jprimarily jto jexplain jnursing jinterventions jto
jother jhealth jcare jprofessionals.‖
d. ―The jnursing jprocess jis jbased jon jnursing jtheory jthat jincorporates
jthe jbiopsychosocial jnature jof jhumans.‖

ANS: jB
The jnursing jprocess jis ja jproblem-solving japproach jto jthe jidentification jand jtreatment jof
jpatients‘ jproblems. jDiagnosis jis jonly jone jphase jof jthe jnursing jprocess. jThe jprimary juse jof
jthe jnursing jprocess jis jin jpatient jcare, jnot jto jestablish jnursing jtheory jor jexplain jnursing
jinterventions jto jother jhealth jcare jprofessionals.

4. A jpatient jhas jbeen jadmitted jto jthe jhospital jfor jsurgery jand jtells jthe jnurse, j―I jdo jnot jfeel
jcomfortable jleaving jmy jchildren jwith jmy jparents.‖ jWhich jaction jshould jthe jnurse jtake
jnext?
a. Reassure jthe jpatient jthat jthese jfeelings jare jcommon jfor jparents.
b. Have jthe jpatient jcall jthe jchildren jto jensure jthat jthey jare jdoing jwell.
c. Gather jmore jdata jabout jthe jpatient‘s jfeelings jabout jthe jchild-care jarrangements.

Because ja jcomplete jassessment jis jnecessary jin jorder jto jidentify ja jproblem jand jchoose jan
jappropriate jintervention, jthe jnurse‘s jfirst jaction jshould jbe jto jobtain jmore jinformation. jThe
jother jactions jmay jbe jappropriate, jbut jmore jassessment jis jneeded jbefore jthe jbest
