Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
All provided options are recognized competencies for entry-level nurses except the ability to practice with expert nursing knowledge. This will be acquired with time and experience.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
When beginning an assignment with a client, the first nursing activity involves a focused but complete assessment of the client's condition. This information enables the nurse to make an ac-curate clinical decision as to the client's health problems and required nursing therapies. The re-maining options support the clinical decision-making process.
