MULTIPLE CHOICE `
1. A group `of nursing students are discussing the impact of nonnursing theories in
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
clinical practice. The students would be correct if they chose which theory to
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
prioritize patient care?
` ` `
a. Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory ` `
b. Paul‘s Critical-Thinking Theory ` `
c. Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs ` ` `
d. Rosenstock‘s Health Belief Model ` ` `
ANS: C `
Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs specifies the psychological and physiologic factors that
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
affect each person‘s physical and mental health. The nurse‘s understanding of these
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
factors helps with formulating Nursing diagnoses that address the patient‘s needs and
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
values to prioritize care. Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory of Development and
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
Socialization is based on
` ` ` `
individuals‘ interacting and learning about their world. Nurses use concepts of ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
developmental theory to critically think in providing care for their patients at various
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
stages of their lives.
` ` ` `
Rosenstock (1974) developed the psychological Health Belief Model. The model ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
addresses possible reasons for why a patient may not comply with recommended
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
health promotion behaviors. This model is especially useful to nurses as they educate
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
patients.

2. A nursing student is preparing study notes from a recent lecture in nursing history.
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
The student would credit Florence Nightingale for which definition of nursing?
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
a. The imbalance between the patient and the environment decreases the capacity
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
` for health. `
b. The nurse needs to focus on interpersonal processes between nurse and patient.
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
c. The nurse assists the patient with essential functions toward independence.
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
d. Human beings are interacting in continuous motion as energy fields. ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
ANS: A `
Florence Nightingale‘s (1860) concept of the environment emphasized prevention and
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
clean air, water, and housing. This theory states that the imbalance between the patient
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
and the environment decreases the capacity for health and does not allow for
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
conservation of energy. Hildegard Peplau (1952) focused on the roles played by the
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
nurse and the interpersonal process between a nurse and a patient. Virginia Henderson
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
described the nurse‘s role as substitutive (doing for the person), supplementary
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
(helping the person), or complementary (working with the person), with the goal of
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
independence for the patient.
` ` ` `
,Martha Rogers (1970) developed the Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
human beings and their environments are interacting in continuous motion as infinite
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
energy fields.

, 3. The nurse identifies which nurse established the American Red Cross during the Civil War?
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
a. Dorothea Dix `
b. Linda Richards `
c. Lena Higbee `
d. Clara Barton `
ANS: D `
Clara Barton practiced nursing in the Civil War and established the American Red
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
Cross. Dorothea Dix was the head of the U.S. Sanitary Commission, which was a
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
forerunner of the Army Nurse Corps. Linda Richards was America‘s first trained nurse,
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
graduating from Boston‘s Women‘s Hospital in 1873, and Lena Higbee, superintendent
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
of the U.S. Navy Nurse Corps, was awarded the Navy Cross in 1918.

4. The nursing instructor is researching the five proficiencies regarded as essential for
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
students and professionals. The nursing instructor identifies which organization would
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
be found to have added safety as a sixth competency?
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
a. Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) ` ` ` ` ` `
b. Institute of Medicine (IOM) ` ` `
c. American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) ` ` ` ` ` `

` These include patient- centered care,
` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
interdisciplinary
`
teamwork, use of evidence-based medicine, quality improvement, and use of ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
information technology. QSEN added safety as a sixth competency. The Essentials of
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
Baccalaureate Education for Professional Nursing Practice are provided and updated
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) (2008). The document
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
offers a framework for the education of professional nurses with outcomes for students
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
to meet. The National League for Nursing (NLN) outlines and updates competencies
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
for practical, associate, baccalaureate, and graduate nursing education programs.

5. The nurse manager is interviewing graduate nurses to fill existing staffing
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
vacancies. When hiring graduate nurses, the nurse manager realizes that they will
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
probably not be considered
` ` ` `
―competent‖ until they complete which task? ` ` ` ` `
a. They graduate and pass NCLEX. ` ` ` `
b. They have worked 2 to 3 years. ` ` ` ` ` `
c. Their last year of nursing school. ` ` ` ` `
