MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The nurse is caring for a patient with a new diagnosis of pneumonia and explains to the
patient that together they will plan the patient’s care and set goals for discharge. The patient
asks, “How is that different from what the doctor does?” Which response by the nurse is most
appropriate?
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 data and communicating when there
are problems.”
c. “Nurses perform many of the procedures done by physicians, but nurses are here in the
hospital for a longer time than doctors.”
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 Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) definition of
nursing. Registered nurses are self-regulated health care professionals who work
autonomously and in collaboration with others. RNs enable individuals, families, groups,
communities and populations to achieve their optimal level of health. RNs coordinate health
care, deliver direct services, and support patients in their self-care decisions and actions in
situations of health, illness, injury, and disability in all stages of life. 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.

2. When caring for patients using evidence-informed practice, which of the following does the
nurse use?
a. Clinical judgement based on experience
b. Evidence from a clinical research study
c. The best available evidence to guide clinical expertise
d. Evaluation of data showing that the patient outcomes are met
ANS: C
Evidence-informed nursing practice is a continuous interactive process involving the explicit,
conscientious, and judicious consideration of the best available evidence to provide care. Four
primary elements are: (a) clinical state, setting, and circumstances; (b) patient preferences and
actions; (c) best research evidence, and (d) health care resources. Clinical judgement based on
the nurse’s clinical experience is part of EIP, but clinical decision making also should
incorporate current research and research-based guidelines. Evidence from one clinical
