Answer to Question 1

A
Intermittent evaluation is performed at specific times; it enables the nurse to judge the progress toward goal achievement and to modify the plan of care as needed. Ongoing evaluation is performed while implementing, immediately after an intervention, or with each client contact; these are not necessarily scheduled events. Terminal evaluation is performed at the time of discharge. It describes the client's health status and progress toward goals at that time. Process evaluation focuses on the manner in which care is given. It may be performed at specific times, but it is not considered a client-centered evaluation.

Answer to Question 2

F
There are many definitions, descriptions, and models of health. There are models of health such as the healthillness continuum, Dunn's Health Grid, Neuman's Continuum. There are also many definitions of health set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO), Florence Nightingale, and Chinese and ancient Indian medicine. What is most significant and accurate is that health is personal to each individual and defined and experienced differently by that individual. The statement is false.
