Multiple Choice ju


Identify the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question.
ju ju ju ju j u ju j u ju ju ju ju


1. What is the most influential factor that has shaped the
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


nursing profession? 1)
ju ju ju


Physicians need for ju ju


handmaidens 2)
ju ju


Societal need for healthcare outside the
ju ju ju ju ju


home 3)
ju ju


Military demand for nurses in the field
ju ju ju ju ju ju


4) Germ theory influence on sanitation
ju ju ju ju ju ju


ANS: 3
ju ju


Throughout the centuries, stability of the government has been related to the success
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


of the military to protect or extend its domain. As the survival and well-being of
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


soldiers is critical, nurses provided healthcare to the sick and injured at the battle
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


site. The physicians handmaiden was/is a nursing stereotype rather
ju ju ju ju j u j u j u j u j u


j uthan an influence on nursing. Although there has been need for healthcare
j u j u j u ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


outside the home throughout history, this has more influence on the development of
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


hospitals than on nursing; this need provided one more setting for nursing work.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


Germ theory and sanitation helped to improve healthcare but did not shape nursing.

2. Which of the following is an example of an illness prevention activity?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


Select all that apply.
ju ju ju ju


1)
Encouraging the use of a food ju ju ju ju ju


diary 2)
ju ju

,Joining a cancer support group
ju ju ju ju


3)
ju


Administering immunization for HPV ju ju ju


4)
ju


Teaching a diabetic patient about his diet
ju ju ju ju ju ju


ANS: 3
ju ju


Administering immunization for HPV is an example of illness prevention. Although
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


cancer is a disease, it is assumed that a person joining a support group would already
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


have the disease; therefore, this is not disease prevention but treatment. Illness-
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


prevention activities focus on avoiding a specific disease. A food diary is a
ju ju j u j u ju j u j u ju ju j u ju j u


health-promotion activity.
j u ju


Teaching a diabetic patient about diet is a treatment for diabetes; the
ju j u j u ju j u j u ju j u j u j u j u


patient already has diabetes, so it cannot prevent diabetes.

3. Which of the following contributions of Florence Nightingale had
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


an immediate impact on improving patients health?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


1)
Providing a clean environment ju ju ju


2)
ju

, Improving nursingeducation ll ju


3)
ju


Changing the delivery of care in ju ju ju ju ju


hospitals 4)
ju ju


Establishing nursing as a distinct profession ju ju ju ju ju


ANS: 1
ju ju


Improved sanitation (a clean environment) greatly and immediately reduced the rate
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


of infection and mortality in hospitals. The other responses are all activities of
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


Florence Nightingale that improved healthcare or nursing, but the impact is long
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


range, not immediate.

4. All of the following are aspects of the full-spectrum nursing role. Which
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


one is essential for the nurse to do in order to successfully carry out all the others?
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


1)
Thinking and reasoning about the clients ju ju ju ju ju


care 2)
ju ju


Providing hands-on client care ju ju ju


3)
ju


Carrying out physician orders ju ju ju


4)
ju


Delegating to assistive personnel ju ju ju


ANS: 1
ju ju


A substantial portion of the nursing role involves using clinical judgment, critical
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


thinking, and problem solving, which directly affect the care the client will actually
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


receive. Providing hands-on care is important; however, clinical judgment, critical
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


thinking, and problem solving are essential to do it successfully. Carrying out
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


physician orders is a small part of a nurses role; it, too, requires nursing
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation. Many simple nursing tasks are
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


being delegated to nursing assistive personnel; delegation requires careful analysis
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


of patient status and the appropriateness of support personnel to deliver care.
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


Another way to analyze this question is that none of the options of providing
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


hands-on care, carrying out physician orders, and delegating to assistive personnel
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


is required for the nurse to think and reason about a clients care; so the answer
ju ju ju ju ju ju ju ju j u ju ju ju ju ju ju ju


must be 1.
