Answer to Question 1
D
The nurse does not have prescriptive authority to order pain medications, unless the nurse is an advanced practice nurse. The intervention is therefore dependent. A collaborative, or interdependent, intervention involves therapies that require combined knowledge, skill, and expertise from multiple health care professionals. An independent intervention does not require an order or collaboration with other professionals.
Answer to Question 2
B

The nurse is the coordinator of care, and collaborating with the dietitian would result in planning the best meals for the patient. The respiratory therapist can be consulted when a patient has issues with the respiratory system. Case management can be consulted when the patient has a discharge need. A chaplain can be consulted when the patient has a spiritual need.
