Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The nursing process consists of collecting data (assessment), nursing diagnosis (which is the RN's responsibility), planning, implementation, and evaluating nursing care. Nursing diagnosis is within the RN's legal role, but LPN/LVNs have an important role in assisting the RN in the other steps of the nursing process.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Data are collected whenever the nurse and patient interact. The other options limit data collection.
