Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Working with the patient to determine treatment priorities is a characteristic of good care planning. Although successful achievement of expected outcomes and inclusion of EBP in-terventions reflect appropriate care planning, such success is influenced by many different factors. Although appropriate, observing care planning sessions does not necessarily affect successful care planning on the part of the novice nurse.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) is the first comprehensive standardized clas-sification of interventions. The NIC states that one should not change intervention labels and definitions so that there is no confusion across settings. Although not inappropriate, the re-maining options do not directly minimize confusion related to communication.
