3. Nurses working in the Henry Street Settlement in 1893 were among
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s
s s the first nurses to demonstrate autonomy in practice. This was
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s because those nurses s s s s
a. Had no ability to work in the hospital setting.
s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s
b. Were required to use critical thinking skills.
s s s s s s s s s s s s
c. Focused solely on healing the very ill. s s s s s s s s s s ss

ANS: B s s
In 1893, nurses working in the Henry Street Settlement were some of the first
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s to demonstrate autonomy in practice because they encountered situations that
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s required quick and innovative problem solving and critical thinking, and provided
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s therapies aimed at maintaining wellness, as well as curing the ill. Nursing
s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s hospitals expanded in the late nineteenth century and were major providers of
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s nursing care. Not until the early twentieth century was there a movement toward
s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s
s s a scientific, research-based body of nursing knowledge.

4. In 1923, the Goldmark Report was an important study that
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
a. Formed formal nurse midwifery programs. s s s s s s ss
b. Established the Center for Ethics and Human Rights. s s s s s s s s s s s s s s

d. Led to the development of the Yale School of Nursing.
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
ANS: D s s
In 1923, the Goldmark Report identified the need for increased financial
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s support for university- based schools of nursing. As a result, the Yale
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s School of Nursing was developed. Graduate nurse midwifery programs did
s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s
s s not come into existence until the 1940s, and the Center for Ethics and
s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s Human Rights was founded in 1990. The ANA code of ethics was
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s
s s published in 1985 and was last updated in 2001. s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
5. The major difference between a baccalaureate degree nursing program and

a. Basic sciences and theoretical courses.
s s s s s s s s
b. Social sciences and humanities. s s s s s s
c. Theoretical and clinical courses. s s s s s s
d. Basic sciences and clinical courses. s s s s s s s s
ANS: B s s
Both associates degree programs and baccalaureate programs focus on basic
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s sciences and s s s s on theoretical and clinical courses. Baccalaureate programs,
s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s however, also focus on courses in the social sciences, arts, and humanities to
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s support nursing theory. s s s s
6. The nurse has been working in the clinical setting for several years as an
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s advanced practice nurse and has earned her masters degree as a family
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s nurse practitioner. However, she seems unfulfilled and has a strong desire to
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s do research. To fulfill her desire, the nurse most likely would apply to
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s attend a program that would lead to a
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
a. Doctor of Nursing Science degree (DNSc). ss s s s s ss s s
b. Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD). s s s s s s s s
c. Doctor of Nursing Practice degree (DNP). s s s s s s s s s s
d. Doctor in the Science of Nursing degree (DSN).
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
ANS: B s s
PhD programs emphasize basic research and theory and are research oriented.
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s Professional doctoral ss s s programs s s in nursing (DSNs s s s s s or s s DNSc) prepare graduates s s s s
s s to s s apply research findings to clinical nursing. The DNP is a practice doctorate
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s that prepares advanced practice nurses such as nurse practitioners.

7. The nurse is caring for her patients and is focused on managing their care
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s as opposed to managing and performing skills. This nurse demonstrates which
