3. Nurse R. has observed that reorienting demented patients as frequently as possible
tends to minimize the patients' level of agitation in the evening. The nurse has shared

evidence-based practice.” How can Nurse R. best respond?

campaign undertaken during the first 4 weeks of the fall semester as measured by
incidence of new gonorrheal and chlamydial infections reported to the campus
medical center?
D) In patients aged 8 to 12, is the effectiveness of a pain scale using faces superior to a
numeric rating scale in the emergency room context?
8. After formulating a clinical question, a nurse has proceeded to search for evidence for
