Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) International increased the visibility of nursing's contribution to client care by continuing to develop, refine, and classify phenomena of concern to nurses. The Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) works to identify, label, validate, and classify actions nurses perform, including direct and indirect care interventions. The Nursing-Sensitive Outcomes Classification (NOC) identifies, validates, and classifies nursing-sensitive client outcomes and indicators to evaluate the validity and usefulness of the classification. Home Health Care Classification (HHCC, now known as Clinical Care Classification (CCC) system) provides a structure for documenting and classifying home health and ambulatory care.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Assessing is the step in which nurses assess the client to determine the need for nursing care. When assessing, the nurse systematically collects client data.
