Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B, E
While nursing theories vary significantly in their conceptualizations, the elements that are common to all include the client (person), the environment, health, and nursing. The concepts of needs and illness are addressed by some theories but these are not explicitly defined by other theories.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, E
Evidence-based nursing is a problem-solving approach to making clinical decisions, using the best evidence available. EBP may meet resistance in clinical practice as a result of the nursing shortage, the acuity level of clients, nurse's skill in reading and evaluating published research, and an organizational culture that does not support change. EBP blends both the science and the art of nursing so that the best client outcomes are achieved. EBP takes into consideration client preferences and values as well as the clinical experiences of the nurse.
