Which statement best illustrates an advanced practice nursing role? 1. A registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit 2. A clinical nurse specialist working as a staff nurse on a mother–baby unit 3. A registered nurse who is the circulating nurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections) 4. A clinical nurse specialist with whom other nurses consult for this nurse’s expertise in caring for high-risk infants Answer: 4 Explanation: 1. A registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit or one who is a circulating 2 | P a g enurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections) is defined as a professional nurse, and has graduated from an accredited program in nursing and completed the licensure examination. 2. A clinical nurse specialist working as a staff nurse on a mother–baby unit might have the qualifications for an advanced practice nursing staff but is not working in that capacity. 3. A registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit or one who is a circulating nurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections) is defined as a professional nurse, and has graduated from an accredited program in nursing and completed the licensure examination. 4. A clinical nurse specialist with whom other nurses consult for expertise in caring for high- risk infants would illustrate an advanced practice nursing role. This nurse has specialized knowledge and competence in a specific clinical area, and is master’s- prepared.

Physical and psychosocial clinical assessment is the major focus of the NP. 4. NPs cannot provide independent care of the high-risk pregnant client, but must work under a physician’s supervision.

Meets the Association of Women’s Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) standards of practice Answer: 4 Explanation: 1.
