Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

The incorporation of patient preferences and values to individualize care is a benchmark for quality nursing care. Calculating intake and output, delegating tasks, and logging out of the computer system do not necessarily indicate that the nurse planned quality care for the patient.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

Internal evidence is derived from quality improvement evaluations. Addressing the largest volume of patient safety hazards, using outcomes to supersede patient preferences, or personal opinions regarding the use of evidence-based practice do not indicate that the information from the committee is being used to support evidence-based practice
