  1. Which nurse most likely kept records on sanitation techniques and the effects on health?
    a. Florence Nightingale
    b. Mary Nutting
    c. Clara Barton
    d. Lillian Wald
    ANS: A
    Nightingale was the first practicing nurse epidemiologist. Her statistical analyses connected
    poor sanitation with cholera and dysentery. Mary Nutting, Clara Barton, and Lillian Wald
    came after Nightingale, each contributing to the nursing profession in her own way. Mary
    Nutting was instrumental in moving nursing education into universities. Clara Barton founded
    the American Red Cross. Lillian Wald helped open the Henry Street Settlement.

  2. The nurse prescribes strategies and alternatives to attain expected outcome. Which standard of
    nursing practice is the nurse following?
    a. Assessment
    b. Diagnosis
    c. Planning
    d. Implementation
    ANS: C
    In planning, the registered nurse develops a plan that prescribes strategies and alternatives to
    attain expected outcomes. During assessment, the registered nurse collects comprehensive
    data pertinent to the patient\u2019s health and\/or the situation. In diagnosis, the registered nurse
    analyzes the assessment data to determine the diagnoses or issues. During implementation, the
    registered nurse implements (carries out) the identified plan.

  3. An experienced medical-surgical nurse chooses to work in obstetrics. Which level of
    proficiency is the nurse upon initial transition to the obstetrical floor?
    a. Novice
    b. Proficient
    c. Competent
    d. Advanced beginner
    ANS: A<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    A beginning nursing student or any nurse entering a situation in which there is no previous
    level of experience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now practice in
    home health) is an example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a patient\u2019s clinical
    situation as a whole, is able to assess an entire situation, and can readily transfer knowledge
    gained from multiple previous experiences to a situation. A competent nurse understands the
    organization and specific care required by the type of patients (e.g., surgical, oncology, or
    orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent practitioner who is able to anticipate nursing
    care and establish long-range goals. A nurse who has had some level of experience with the
    situation is an advanced beginner. This experience may only be observational in nature, but
    the nurse is able to identify meaningful aspects or principles of nursing care.

    1. A nurse assesses a patient\u2019s fluid status and decides that the patient needs to drink more fluids.
      The nurse then encourages the patient to drink more fluids. Which concept is the nurse
      demonstrating?
      a. Licensure
      b. Autonomy
      c. Certification
      d. Accountability
      ANS: B
      Autonomy is an essential element of professional nursing that involves the initiation of
      independent nursing interventions without medical orders. To obtain licensure in the United
      States, the RN candidate must pass the NCLEX-RN\uf0e2. Beyond the NCLEX-RN\uf0e2, the nurse
      may choose to work toward certification in a specific area of nursing practice. Accountability
      means that you are responsible, professionally and legally, for the type and quality of nursing
      care provided.

    2. A nurse prepares the budget and policies for an intensive care unit. Which role is the nurse
      implementing?
      a. Educator
      b. Manager
      c. Advocate
      d. Caregiver
      ANS: B<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      A manager coordinates the activities of members of the nursing staff in delivering nursing
      care and has personnel, policy, and budgetary responsibility for a specific nursing unit or
      facility. As an educator, you explain concepts and facts about health, describe the reason for
      routine care activities, demonstrate procedures such as self-care activities, reinforce learning
      or patient behavior, and evaluate the patient\u2019s progress in learning. As a patient advocate, you
      protect your patient\u2019s human and legal rights and provide assistance in asserting these rights if
      the need arises. As a caregiver, you help patients maintain and regain health, manage disease
      and symptoms, and attain a maximal level function and independence through the healing
      process.

      1. The nurse has been working in the clinical setting for several years as an advanced practice
        nurse. However, the nurse has a strong desire to pursue research and theory development. To
        fulfill this desire, which program should the nurse attend?
        a. Doctor of Nursing Science degree (DNSc)
        b. Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD)
        c. Doctor of Nursing Practice degree (DNP)
        d. Doctor in the Science of Nursing degree (DSN)
        ANS: B
        Some doctoral programs prepare nurses for more rigorous research and theory development
        and award the research-oriented Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in nursing. Professional doctoral
        programs in nursing (DSN or DNSc) prepare graduates to apply research findings to clinical
        nursing. The DNP is a practice doctorate that prepares advanced practice nurses such as nurse
        practitioners.

      2. A nurse attends a workshop on current nursing issues provided by the American Nurses
        Association. Which type of education did the nurse receive?
        a. Graduate education
        b. Inservice education
        c. Continuing education
        d. Registered nurse education
        ANS: C
        Continuing education involves formal, organized educational programs offered by
        universities, hospitals, state nurses associations, professional nursing organizations, and
        educational and health care institutions. After obtaining a baccalaureate degree in nursing, you
        can pursue graduate education leading to a master\u2019s or doctoral degree in any number of
        graduate fields, including nursing. Inservice education programs are instruction or training
        provided by a health care facility or institution. Registered nurse education is the education
        preparation for an individual intending to be an RN.
