MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The nurse completes an admission database and explains that the plan of care and discharge goals
will be developed with the patient’s input. The patient states, “How is this different from what the
doctor does?” Which response would be most appropriate for the nurse to make? a. “The role of
the nurse is to administer medications and other treatments prescribed by your doctor.”
b. “The nurse’s job is to help the doctor by collecting information and communicating any
problems that occur.”
c. “Nurses perform many of the same procedures as the doctor, but nurses are with the
patients for a longer time than the doctor.”
d. “In addition to caring for you while you are sick, the nurses will assist you to develop an
individualized plan to maintain your health.”
ANS: D
This response is consistent with the American Nurses Association (ANA) definition of
nursing, which describes the role of nurses in promoting health. The other responses describe
some of the dependent and collaborative functions of the nursing role but do not accurately
describe the nurse’s role in the health care system.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand (comprehension) REF: 3
TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment

for patients. Which statement, if made by the nurse, would be the most accurate? a. “Inferences
from clinical research studies are used as a guide.”
b. “Patient care is based on clinical judgment, experience, and traditions.”
