environment.

,Option 3: |\




Nursing diagnoses address the health status of clients
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



and include terminology such as "deficient" and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



"insufficient." In this case, the diagnosis addresses a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



problem but not the pathology of it. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




Option 4: |\




Direct terms such as renal failure name the illness or
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



disease, which is a medical diagnosis. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




Option 5: |\




A diagnosis of emphysema with COPD is a medical
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



diagnosis.

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




5. Carry out goal implementation and interventions even
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



when client doesn't "feel like it." - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

,✔✔*1. Ensure the client feels comfortable asking
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



questions.*
*2. Keep the instructions simple, clear, and as specific as
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



possible.*
*3. Determine if the client's goals for weight loss are the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



same as those in the nursing plan.*
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




*4. Help the client set realistic goals.*

Rationales
Option 1: It is important that the client understands
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



instructions and feels comfortable asking questions for |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



clarification.
Option 2: |\




By keeping instructions clear, simple, and specific, the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



client will be able to demonstrate understanding of what
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



is expected.
|\




Option 3: |\




In order for the client to be successful in reaching goals
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



and outcomes, he or she must have the same goals and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



focus as the nursing plan.
|\ |\ |\ |\




Option 4: |\




Realistic goals are instrumental to compliance and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



adherence in order to yield positive outcomes. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

nurse should apply critical thinking skills to determine
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



why and plan ways to get past this obstacle.

2. The client will understand strategies for preventing skin
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



breakdown.
|\




3. The client will be moved periodically throughout the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



shift.
4. The client's skin will remain intact and healthy. -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔*4. The client's skin will remain |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\



intact and healthy.* |\ |\




Rationales
Option 1: This is a goal statement for a nursing diagnosis
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
