Answer to Question 1

Ans: A

After data have been collected and interpreted to determine client outcome achievement, the nurse makes and documents a judgment summarizing the findings. The three decision options are met, partially met, and not met. In this case, the nurse's judgment is that the client has met the expected outcome of smoking cessation.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B

Each element of evaluation requires the nurse to use critical thinking about how best to evaluate the client's progress toward valued outcomes.
