Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Ambulation for the first time after major surgery requires an assessment by an RN and thus this would require an intervention. The other options are appropriate delegation and therefore do not require intervention.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Clinical nursing skills are enhanced in a primary nursing environment because of the autonomy nurses receive. The other models do not necessarily promote the development of decision-making skills.
