Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Carrying out the care plan is termed implementation. Assessment involves data collection. Planning involves creation of the nursing care plan. Evaluation involves determining goal attainment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The nursing process provides a structure for nurses to identify and respond to patient needs within the scope of nursing. Diagnosing disease is the domain of the physician. Reimbursement is not the primary purpose of the nursing process. Communication facilitation is not the primary purpose of the nursing process.
