Answer to Question 1

Answer: B, C

Medium-priority interventions are those that would not cause a life-threatening situation if performed later throughout the shift. These interventions include passive range of motion exercises and removing splints for skin care. Instructing on ostomy appliance changes is a low-priority intervention. Administering fresh frozen plasma and endotracheal suctioning would be considered critical interventions because if these interventions were not performed, the client's health status could quickly deteriorate.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Interdisciplinary teams include professionals of varied backgrounds who share in decision making. Multidisciplinary teams include members of varied backgrounds, but treatment decisions are made by one member-usually the primary healthcare provider. Intradisciplinary teams include members of the same profession. The term interprofessional team is synonymous with interdisciplinary team.
