Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
The nurse formulates, validates, and lists nursing diagnoses for each client. Nursing diagnoses provide the basis for selecting nursing interventions that will achieve valued client outcomes for which the nurse is responsible.

Monitoring for health status changes is clearly a nursing responsibility. The other options are medical responsibilities, although in some instances an advanced practice nurse practitioner may be responsible for A and C.
