The nursing process is a problem-

the nursing process. The primary use of the nursing process is in patient care, not to establish nursing

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the use of the best research-

3. The nurse completes an admission database and explains that the plan of care and discharge goals will

Which response would be most appropriate for the nurse to make?

a. The role of the nurse is to administer medications and other treatments prescribed by your doctor.

b. The nurses job is to help the doctor by collecting information and communicating any proble

This response is consistent with the American Nurses Association (ANA) definition of nursing,

nosis is not appropriate for this patient, who already has impaired tissue integrity. The patient does have in
