ANS: A
In-service education programs are instruction or training provided by a health care agency or institution designed to

institution. Some roles for RNs in nursing require advanced graduate degrees, such as a clinical nurse specialist or
nurse practitioner. There are various educational routes for becoming a registered nurse (RN), such as associate,
diploma, and baccalaureate. Continuing education involves formal, organized educational programs offered by
universities, hospitals, state nurses associations, professional nursing organizations, and educational and health care
institutions.

RN examination administered by the individual State Boards of Nursing to obtain a nursing license. Beyond the
NCLEX-RN, some nurses choose to work toward certification in a specific area of nursing practice.

6.A patient does not want the treatment that was prescribed. The nurse helps the patient talk to the primary health
care provider and even talks to the primary health care provider when needed. The nurse is acting in which
professional role?
a.Educator
b.Manager
c.Advocate
d.Provider of care
ANS: C
As an advocate you act on behalf of your patient, securing and standing up for your patients health care rights. 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 patient behavior, and evaluate the patients progress in
learning. Most nurses provide direct patient care in an acute care setting, and this describes the role of provider of
care. A manager coordinates the activities of members of the nursing staff in delivering nursing care and has
personnel, policy, and budgetary responsibility for a specific nursing unit or agency.

a.Code of Ethics
b.Nurse Practice Act
c.Standards of practice
d.Quality and safety education for nurses
ANS: B
In the United States each State Board of Nursing oversees its Nurse Practice Act (NPA), which regulates the scope
of nursing practice for the state and protects public health, safety, and welfare. The ANAs Code of Ethics for
Nurses: Interpretation and Application (2010) provides a guide (not a law) for carrying out nursing responsibilities
to ensure high-quality nursing care and provide for the ethical obligations of the profession. The purpose of a
standard of care is to describe the common level of professional nursing care to judge the quality of nursing
practice. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation sponsored the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN)
initiative to respond to reports about safety and quality patient care by the Institute of Medicine.
