NUR 205 FINAL 2026 ACTUAL TEST PAPER
QUESTIONS SOLUTIONS VERIFIED COMPLETE
STUDY PACKAGE
◉ possible nursing diagnoses
Answer: describes a suspected problem for which additional data
are needed (additional data are used to confirm or rule out the
suspected problem)
◉ syndrome nursing diagnoses
Answer: comprise a cluster of actual or risk nursing diagnoses that
are predicted to be present because of a certain event or situation
◉ Collaborative problem (nursing process)
Answer: Clinical problem that cannot be solved by you alone:
-Requires medications and treatments
-Requires other health care professionals
-There is an overlap between medical and nursing diagnoses
-You work interdependently with all health team members needed to
solve the problem
◉ Writing a nursing diagnosis
,Answer: Problem, r/t Etiology, As Evidence By (AEB): Impaired
physical mobility r/t pain AEB c/o pain with limited ROM (no AEB
with "Risk for" diagnoses
Problem, r/t Etiology, secondary Pathophysiology: Risk for Impaired
Skin Integrity r/t decreased peripheral circulation secondary to
diabetes (no AEB)
Problem r/t unknown Etiology: Noncompliance (medication
regiment) r/t unknown etiology AEB refusal to take Rx meds
-no "as evidence by" with "risk for" diagnoses
◉ Outcome Identification and Planning (Nursing process)
Answer: -Outcomes/goal setting
-Prioritizing
-Plan interventions that will achieve the desired outcomes based on
Evidence based nursing
-Confirm the plan with the client
-establish priorities
-identify expected patient outcomes
-select evidence based nursing interventions
-communicate the plan of care
,◉ Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) from the University of
Iowa Outcomes Research Team
Answer: -Research-based
-Standardized method of stating nursing-sensitive outcomes
-Understandable to all health care professionals
-They are measured on a scale to allow measuring neg. or positive
changes or a lack of change resulting from nursing interventions
◉ Nursing outcomes classification scale
Answer: 1= not adequate
2= slightly adequate
3= moderately
4= substantially adequate
5= totally adequate
◉ types of planning (nursing process)
Answer: -Planning for individuals (focus on) verses groups or client
populations
-Initial Planning: Starts right away while doing assessment
-Ongoing Planning: Client's health condition may change rapidly
-Discharge Planning- Starts right away
, ◉ The planning process (nursing process)
Answer: Establish Priorities:
-What needs to be done immediately and what can safely be
postponed
-Basic survival need to take first priority when your client has a
threat to physiological integrity
-Maslow Hierarchy of Needs
◉ Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (from lower level needs to higher
level of needs)
Answer: physiological
safety and security
love and belonging
self-esteem
self-actualization
◉ Establishing Outcomes (nursing process)
Answer: Expected Outcome: the desirable end result of nursing care.
-Includes a subject, verb, performance criteria, target time (possibly
a condition)
-Must be realistic or achievable
-Should be measurable, timed and can be directly observed.
