Answer to Question 1

ANS:
long-term
A nursing goal is the overall direction in which one must progress to improve a problem. Long-term goals are not expected to be met before the patient is discharged from the hospital. It may be an ongoing process of improvement or a gradual change in circumstances.

Answer to Question 2

ANS:
two-part
In some circumstances, all three parts of the nursing diagnosis statement may not apply. In this case, a two-part statement may be a better fit. When the nursing diagnosis is one that expresses the risk for a problem, a possible problem, or certain actual problems, the two-part statement is used. This is referred to as a PE, or problem and etiology only, statement.
