1. A patient who is hospitalized for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) wants to go
home. The nurse and the patient discuss the patient’s situation and decide that the patient may
go home when able to perform self-care without dyspnea and hypoxia. This is an example of
which phase of the nursing process?
a. Assessment
b. Evaluation
c. Implementation
d. Planning
ANS: D
Planning involves goal setting, which, for this patient, means being able to perform self-care
activities without dyspnea and hypoxia.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Understanding (Comprehension) TOP: Nursing Process: Planning
MSC: NCLEX: Management of Care

2. A patient will be sent home with a metered-dose inhaler, and the nurse is providing teaching.
Which is a correctly written goal for this process?
a. The nurse will demonstrate the correct use of a metered-dose inhaler to the patient.
b. The nurse will teach the patient how to administer medication with a metered-dose
inhaler.
c. The patient will know how to self-administer the medication using the
metered-dose inhaler.
d. The patient will independently administer the medication using the metered-dose
inhaler at the end of the session.
N
ANS: D
Goals must be patient-centered and clearly state the outcome with a reasonable deadline and
should identify components for evaluation.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Applying (Application) TOP: Nursing Process: Planning
MSC: NCLEX: Management of Care

3. The nurse is developing a plan of care for a patient who has chronic lung disease and hypoxia.
The patient has been admitted for increased oxygen needs above a baseline of 2 L/min. The
nurse develops a goal stating, “The patient will have oxygen saturations of >95% on room air
at the time of discharge from the hospital.” What is wrong with this goal?
a. It cannot be evaluated.
b. It is not measurable.
c. It is not patient-centered.
d. It is not realistic.
ANS: D
This goal is not realistic because the patient is not usually on room air and should not be
expected to attain that goal by discharge from this hospitalization.
