Answer to Question 1

Ans: C

The nurse asking if the client is having pain clearly demonstrates assessing. Bathing the client and removing the wash basin demonstrate implementation. Documentation is part of every step of nursing process.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, D, E

The purpose for which the assessment is being performed offers the best guideline about what type and how much data to collect. Assessment priorities are influenced by the client's health orientation, developmental stage, culture, and need for nursing. After the comprehensive nursing assessment has been completed, client health problems dictate assessment priorities for future nurseclient interactions.
