Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: Live translation is preferred since the client can then ask questions for clarification. Many large facilities are establishing their own translator services for the languages commonly spoken in their geographical regions. Nurses must be cautious when asking family members, client visitors, or agency nonprofessional staff to assist with translation. Issues of confidentiality or gender mismatch can interfere with effective communication.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,2,5
Rationale: Diagnosing is analyzing and synthesizing data in order to identify client strengths and health problems that can be prevented or resolved by collaborative and independent nursing interventions as well as developing a list of nursing and collaborative problems. Developing a plan and specifying goals and outcomes is part of the planning phase.
