Answer to Question 1

D
Magnet status is awarded to health care organizations that have met the rigorous nursing excellence
requirements of the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), a division of the American
Nurses Association (ANA). Achievement of magnet status designation represents the highest level of
recognition the ANCC accords to health care organizations that provide the services of registered
professional nurses.

Answer to Question 2

A
The steps involved in the total process of evidence-based practice are step 1, asking the correct clinical
question(s), finding the best practice, and validating the findings to the particular care situation; step 2,
clinical application of the best practice; and step 3, evaluation of the effectiveness of the care given
and continual process improvement. The nursing instructor would need to clarify that making the
correct diagnosis is always important, but it is not one of the steps in the process.
