A nurse remarks, We have a list of nursing diagnoses for identifying client problems, and we have a nursing outcomes classification, so how will having a nursing interventions classification (NIC) be helpful? The best answer would be:
 
  1. Nursing is seeking true professional status. We need clear rules we can all fol-low.
  2. NIC will identify a body of nursing actions and the rules and principles for their use.
  3. We need to know why we do things. NIC will provide us with the rationales for proposed nursing interventions.
  4. NIC will prevent use of intuition and foster scientific reasoning in the selection of interventions.

Question 2

One nurse asks another, Where can I find out more about outcomes that are most influenced by the actions of nursing? The best response would be:
 
  1. Look at NANDA diagnostic nomenclature.
  2. Look at NIC.
  3. Look at NOC.
  4. Look at DSM-IV-TR.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
NIC provides a collection of interventions that are effective in the nursing care of clients with physical and psychiatric illnesses, illness prevention, health promotion, and education. Clear rules and principles for the interventions listed in the classification are available. Options 1, 3, and 4 do not state valid reasons why NIC is helpful.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
Nursing-sensitive client outcomes that can be measured on a continuum are the focus of the Nursing Outcomes Classification (option 3). 1. NANDA focuses on nursing diagnoses. 2. NIC focuses on nursing interventions. 4. DSM-IV-TR provides diagnostic criteria for psychiatric dis-orders.
