Answer to Question 1

D
Nursing interventions are written as specific orders in the client's medical record by a physician or other health care provider; standing orders, standardized interventions that are approved and signed by a physician and used in predictable situations or in situations requiring immediate attention; and protocols, a series of standing orders or procedures to be followed under certain specific circumstances.

Answer to Question 2

D
Veracity is the principle of truthfulness in dealing with others. For example, if a client asks a nurse about data such as vital signs, it is the nurse's responsibility to provide these data to the client. In some instances, if a health care provider believes that providing truthful information may be harmful to a client, the principle of nonmaleficence would justify withholding the information. Nonmaleficence is the principle of duty to avoid causing harm to others; it refers to both intentional harm and the risk of harm, which may be physiologic, social, financial, or spiritual in nature. Nonmaleficence requires that a nurse weigh potential risks and benefits of treatment or research, following professional and legal standards of care.
