Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

As change agents, nurses assist clients to make modifications in their behavior. Nurse case managers work with the multidisciplinary healthcare team to measure the effectiveness of the case management plan and to monitor outcomes. As client advocate, the nurse may represent the client's needs and wishes to other health professionals, such as relaying the client's wishes for information to the physician. As teachers, nurses' help clients learn about their health and about healthcare procedures used to restore or maintain their health.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D

The nurse educator is responsible for classroom and often clinical teaching. A clinical nurse specialist has an advanced degree or expertise and is considered to be an expert in a specialized area of practice. The nurse provides direct client care, educates others, consults, conducts research, and manages care. A nurse practitioner has an advanced education, is a graduate of a nurse practitioner program, and usually deals with nonemergency acute or chronic illness and provides primary ambulatory care. A nurse entrepreneur usually has an advanced degree, manages a health-related business, and may be involved in education, consultation, or research.
