Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D
Both the content and process of the interview should be documented. Providing only the patient's verbal responses creates a skewed picture of the patient. Writing that the patient is uncooperative is subjectively worded. An objective description of patient behavior is preferable. Analysis of the reasons for the patient's behavior is speculation, which is inappropriate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
QSEN represents national initiatives centered on patient safety and quality. The primary goal of QSEN is to prepare future nurses with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to increase the quality, care, and safety in the health care setting in which they work.
