Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale: Standard 5: Implementation includes prescriptive authority and treatment, which would include a referral for further treatment and therapy in accordance with state and federal laws and regulations. Assessment is data collection. Diagnosis analyzes the assessment data. Planning prescribes strategies and alternatives to reach the expected goals.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale: Nurses may need to interpret Internet sources of information to clients and their families. Though not all Internet-based information is accurate, some may be high quality and valid. Nurses need to become information brokers so they, not just the physician, can help clients access and evaluate information to determine its usefulness.
