  What is the nurse's next step? 1. Check with the assistant to see how the assignment is going during the time breakfast is served.

  3. Check with the clients to see if they had breakfast.
  4. At the end of the shift ask the assistant how the clients ate.

Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Checking with the assistant while the tasks are being done is the best plan. If there is a misunderstanding or problem, this is the best time for the nurse to intervene.
Rationale 2: Simply seeing an empty breakfast tray does not guarantee that the instructions were carried out correctly.
Rationale 3: Checking with the clients does not allow for the nurse to amend the instruction or correct the actions being taken.
Rationale 4: Waiting until the end of the shift does not allow the nurse to amend the instruction or correct actions being taken.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

3
Explanation: 1. Going on a mission trip is the short-term goal since it involves the next 6 months to a year time
frame. The long-term goal would be to become the nurse anesthetist within 10 years. The
statements about extra shifts and getting the job are broad and not measurable. Thus they are
not goals.
