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 |asks, |“How |is |this |different |from
|
what |the |physician |does?” |Which |response |would |the |nurse |provide?
|
a. “The |role |of |the |nurse |is |to |administer |medications |and |other |treatments |prescribed |by
| your |physician.”
b. “In |addition |to |caring |for |you |while |you |are |sick, |the |nurses |will |help |you |plan |to
maintain |your |health.”
|
c. “The |nurse‘s |job |is |to |collect |information |and |communicate |any|problems |that
occur |to |the |physician.”
|
d. “Nurses |perform |many|of |the |same |procedures |as |the |physician, |but |nurses |are
with |the |patients |for |a |longer |time |than |the |physician.”
|
ANSWER: | B
The |American |Nurses |Association |(ANA) |definition |of |nursing |describes |the |role |of |nurses |in
promoting |health. |The |other |responses |describe |dependent |and |collaborative |functions |of |the
|
nursing |role |but |do |not |accurately |describe |the |nurse‘s |unique |role |in |the |health |care |system.

b. “Data |are |analyzed |later |to |show |that |the |patient |outcomes |are |consistently |met.”
c. “Research |from |all |published |articles |are |used |as |a |guide |for |planning |patient |care.”
d. “Recommendations |are |based |on |research, |clinical |expertise, |and |patient
preferences.”
|
ANSWER: | D
Evidence-based |practice |(EBP) |is |the |use |of |the |best |research-based |evidence |combined |with
clinician |expertise |and |consideration |of |patient |preferences. |Clinical |judgment |based |on |the
|
nurse‘s |clinical |experience |is |part |of |EBP, |but |clinical |decision |making |should |also |incorporate
|
current |research |and |research-based |guidelines. |Evaluation |of |patient |outcomes |is |important, |but
