Ans:
3
Administering Immunization For Hpv Is An Example Of Illness Prevention. Although
Cancer Is A Disease, It Is Assumed That A Person Joining A Support Group Would Already
Have The Disease; Therefore, This Is Not Disease Prevention But Treatment. Illness-
Prevention Activities Focus On Avoiding A Specific Disease. A Food Diary Is A Health-
Promotion Activity. Teaching A Diabetic Patient About Diet Is A Treatment For Diabetes;
The Patient Already Has Diabetes, So It Cannot Prevent Diabetes.

The Others?
1)
Thinking And Reasoning About The Clients
Care 2)
Providing Hands-On Client
Care 3)
Carrying Out Physician
Orders 4)
Delegating To Assistive Personnel
Ans: 1
A Substantial Portion Of The Nursing Role Involves Using Clinical Judgment, Critical
Thinking, And Problem Solving, Which Directly Affect The Care The Client Will
Actually Receive. Providing Hands-On Care Is Important; However, Clinical Judgment,
Critical Thinking, And Problem Solving Are Essential To Do It Successfully. Carrying
Out Physician Orders Is A Small Part Of A Nurses Role; It, Too, Requires Nursing
Assessment, Planning, Intervention, And Evaluation. Many Simple Nursing Tasks Are
Being Delegated To Nursing Assistive Personnel; Delegation Requires Careful Analysis
Of Patient Status And The Appropriateness Of Support Personnel To Deliver Care.
Another Way To Analyze This Question Is That None Of The Options Of Providing
Hands-On Care, Carrying Out Physician Orders, And Delegating To Assistive Personnel
Is Required For The Nurse To Think And Reason About A Clients Care; So The Answer
Must Be 1.
