Answer to Question 1

1. The client thanked the nurse for contacting her priest to visit while hospitalized.

Rationale:
Evidence that a client's religious needs were met while hospitalized would be the client thanking the nurse for contacting her priest. The client who asked for additional supplies to change dressings at home exhibits no evidence of religious needs being met. The client who asks the nurse who to call if she has any problems at home is not exhibiting evidence of religious needs being met. The client who tells the nurse that she will not need home care is not exhibiting evidence that religious needs have been met.

Answer to Question 2

A
Independent nursing interventions are nursing actions initiated by the nurse that do not require direction or an order from another health care professional. These interventions are sanctioned by professional nurse practice acts derived from licensure laws.
