3. Nurses working in the Henry Street Settlement in 1893 were among the first nurses
m m m m m m m m m m m m m



to demonstrate autonomy in practice. This was because those nurses
m m m m m m m m m m

m m m m m m m m




b. Were required to use critical thinking skills.
m m m m m m




c. Focused solely on healing the very ill.m m m m m m




d. Planned their care around research findings.
m m m m m




ANS: B m




In 1893, nurses working in the Henry Street Settlement were some of the first to demonstrate
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m autonomy in practice because they encountered situations that required quick and innovative
m m m m m m m m m m m



m problem solving and critical thinking, and provided therapies aimed at maintaining wellness, as
m m m m m m m m m m m m



m well as curing the ill. Nursing hospitals expanded in the late nineteenth century and were
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m major providers of nursing care. Not until the early twentieth century was there a movement
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m toward a scientific, research-based body of nursing knowledge.

m m m m m m m m m m m m



m university- based schools of nursing. As a result, the Yale School of Nursing was developed.
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



Graduate nurse midwifery programs did not come into existence until the 1940s, and the
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m Center for Ethics and Human Rights was founded in 1990. The ANA code of ethics was
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m published in 1985 and was last updated in 2001.

a. Basic sciences and theoretical courses.
m m m m




b. Social sciences and humanities.m m m




c. Theoretical and clinical courses. m m m




d. Basic sciences and clinical courses.
m m m m




ANS: B m




Both associates degree programs and baccalaureate programs focus on basic sciences and on
m m m m m m m m m m m m



m theoretical and clinical courses. Baccalaureate programs, however, also focus on courses in
m m m m m m m m m m m



the social sciences, arts, and humanities to support nursing theory.

6. The nurse has been working in the clinical setting for several years as an advanced
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



practice nurse and has earned her masters degree as a family nurse practitioner. However,
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m she seems unfulfilled and has a strong desire to do research. To fulfill her desire, the
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m nurse most likely would apply to attend a program that would lead to a
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




a. Doctor of Nursing Science degree (DNSc).
m m m m m




b. Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD). m m m m




c. Doctor of Nursing Practice degree (DNP).
m m m m m




d. Doctor in the Science of Nursing degree (DSN).
m m m m m m m




ANS: B m




PhD programs emphasize basic research and theory and are research oriented. Professional
m m m m m m m m m m m



m doctoral programs in nursing (DSN or DNSc) prepare graduates to apply research findings to
m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m clinical nursing. The DNP is a practice doctorate that prepares advanced practice nurses such
m m m m m m m m m m m m m



as nurse practitioners.

7. The nurse is caring for her patients and is focused on managing their care as opposed to
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m



m managing and performing skills. This nurse demonstrates which level of proficiency according
