Answer to Question 1

D
The theory of teleology asserts that the value of a situation is determined by its consequences; this means that the outcome of an action, not the action itself, is the criterion for determining the goodness of that action. The principle of utility, a basic concept of teleology, is that an act must result in the greatest good for the greatest number of people.

Answer to Question 2

D
Initial planning involves development of a preliminary plan of care; this planning occurs when the nurse obtains comprehensive admission assessment data. Ongoing planning involves continuous updating of the client's plan of care, incorporating additional data about the client, and making appropriate revisions in the initial plan. Discharge planning involves anticipating the client's needs for care after discharge from the health care facility.
