Answer to Question 1

A
Implementation, the fourth step in the nursing process, involves performing the actions that have been planned to meet the client's goals and delegating tasks to personnel who are competent to perform the tasks.

Answer to Question 2

B
Euthanasia refers to the intentional act or lack of action that causes a merciful death of someone suffering from either a terminal illness or incurable condition.

Answer to Question 3

C
Nursing interventions (actions that assist the client to attain the results specified by the goals and expected outcomes) are then formulated. Nursing interventions can be independent (i.e., initiated by the nurse and not requiring an order from another health professional), interdependent (i.e., implemented collaboratively by the nurse and other health professionals), or dependent (i.e., requiring an order or prescription from a physician or other health care professional).
