MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Which of the following is an example of an illness prevention activity?
a) Encouraging the use of a food diary
b) Joining a cancer support group
c) Administering immunization for HPV
d) Teaching a diabetic patient about his diet
ANS: C
Administering immunization for HPV is an example of illness prevention. Although cancer is
a disease, it is assumed that a person joining a support group would already have the disease;
therefore, it would be treatment and not disease prevention. Illness prevention activities focus
on avoiding a specific disease. A food diary is a health promotion activity. Teaching a diabetic
patient about diet is a treatment for diabetes; the patient already has diabetes, so the teaching
cannot prevent diabetes.

2. Which organization can require nurses to take continuing education courses as a condition of
licensure renewal?
a) American Nurses Association
b) National League for Nursing
c) Sigma Theta Tau
d) State Board of Nursing
ANS: D
Continuing education is a professional strategy designed to ensure that nurses remain current
in their clinical knowledge. Many states require nurses to engage in a certain number of
continuing-education requirements to renew their license. The knowledge gained in the
nursing curriculum is sufficient for nursing school graduates to obtain their initial license.
Requirements for renewal of a nurse’s license can be found in the state’s nurse practice act
(state board of nursing).

NURSINGBYTES
, b) Advanced beginner
c) Competent
d) Expert
ANS: D
The nurse who has reached the expert stage of proficiency has a deep understanding of the
clinical situation based on knowledge and experience. The nurse often senses a potential
problem in the absence of classic signs and symptoms. The novice nurse is inexperienced and
relies on rules and processes. The advanced beginner focuses on aspects of a situation and is
unable to see the comprehensive perspective. A nurse functioning at the competent level is
able to prioritize to meet the patient needs but does not fully grasp the total situation.
Difficulty: Moderate
Cognitive Level: Comprehension
PTS: 1

provide safe care.

based on the population they serve.

regardless of role, population, or specialty, are expected to perform competently. Standards are
derived from several sources, including professional organizations and healthcare facilities’
policies and procedures.
Difficulty: Moderate
Cognitive Level: Application
PTS: 1
