MULTIPLE CHOICE
• What is the primary purpose of the nursing assessment?
• Identifying underlying pathologic conditions
• Assisting the physician in identifying medical conditions
• Determining the patients mental status
• Exploring patient responses to health problems
CORRECT ANS>> D
A nursing assessment is done to identify the patients response to health problems. During the nursing
assessment phase, a comprehensive information base is developed through a physical examination,
nursing history, medication history, and professional observation. Identifying underlying pathologic
conditions and assisting the physician in identifying medical conditions is not part of the nursing process.
Determining the patients mental status is one part of the nursing assessment, but it is not the primary
purpose.
