Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
One of the major responsibilities of the nurse as provider of care is to maintain competency in using monitoring and therapeutic equipment. This is a vital safety measure for the patient. The nurse as provider of care should assess all of the patient's physical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs, not just the priority physical needs. Supervising other personnel may or may not be part of a nurse's job description. Choosing to delegate an activity is not a core role of the provider of care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Jean Watson contends that caring as a nurse requires the nurse to pay attention to both the physical and spiritual dimensions of the patient. Clarifying health beliefs and practices is more related to Leininger's theory. Allowing children to visit despite restrictions is a caring action, but is not tied to a specific theory. Manipulating the environment for patient comfort and well-being is a core component of Nightingale's theory.
