Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4

Kim's original theory discussed the nurse and the client. Dalton extended this theory to include family caregivers. This theory extension did not include social workers, children, vulnerable populations, or psychologists.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

The National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) is the primary registry for nursing-sensitive indicators. The nursing-sensitive indicators represent the structure, process, and outcomes of nursing care and are reported at a unit level. Comparisons can be made at the state, national, and regional level. Similar units and facilities are compared on specific indicators. The National Quality Forum endorses a wide range of quality indicators as measures of health care and has established specific criteria. Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) led the nationwide effort to develop quality and safety competencies and content that can be integrated into the nursing education curriculum. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is the primary governmental agency focused on designing research to improve safety and quality of care, control costs, and increase access to essential services.
