Chapter 1 Evolution of Nursing Thought & Action
Multiple Choice

Identify the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.

1. What is the most influential factor that has shaped the nursing profession?

1) Physicians need for handmaidens

2) Societal need for healthcare outside the home

3) Military demand for nurses in the field

4) Germ theory influence on sanitation

CORRECT ANSWER 3

Throughout the centuries, stability of the government has been related to the success of the military
to protect or extend its domain. As the survival and well-being of soldiers is critical, nurses
provided healthcare to the sick and injured at the battle site. The physicians handmaiden was/is a
nursing stereotype rather than an influence on nursing. Although there has been need for
healthcare outside the home throughout history, this has more influence on the development of
hospitals than on nursing; this need provided one more setting for nursing work. Germ theory and
sanitation helped to improve healthcare but did not shape nursing.

PTS: 1 DIF: Moderate REF: dm 910 KEY: Nursing process: N/A Client need: N/A | Cognitive level:
Recall

2. Which of the following is an example of an illness prevention activity? Select all that apply.

1) Encouraging the use of a food diary

2) Joining a cancer support group

3) Administering immunization for HPV

4) Teaching a diabetic patient about his diet

CORRECT ANSWER 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.
