Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Feedback:
Correctly stated client outcomes are specific, measurable, and realistic. The other choices are poorly defined and do not specify when or how or by whom.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
As providers of care, nurses assume responsibility for helping clients promote, restore, and maintain health and wellness. Communicating the client's needs and concerns, and protecting the client's rights, are components of the advocacy role of nursing. The nurse is simply assisting in hygiene measures; no education or counseling is being provided.
