Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Input for the nursing process is the data or information that comes from a client's assessment (i.e., how the client interacts with the environment and the client's physiological function).
This is an example of the nursing process content: the information about the nursing care for cli-ents with specific health care problems.
Feedback serves to inform a system about how it functions: how the client responds to the inter-vention.
Output is the end product of a system and in the case of the nursing process it is whether the cli-ent's health status improves or remains stable as a result of nursing care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
The Neuman Systems Model uses a systems' approach to describe how clients deal with stressors in their internal or external environments. Nurses using Neuman's theory in practice focus their care on client responses to the stressors (Meleis, 2006). For example, when a client takes on a new role within their employment, they may react to the stress by eating an improper diet. In this situ-ation the nurse focuses on the client response to the stressors and designs interventions related to improving nutritional intake, both actions directed towards improving glucose control.
While acquiring good interpersonal communication skills may help minimize the stress the client is currently experiencing, it does not address identifying the source of the stress or the manage-ment of the type 2 diabetes.
While acquiring effective coping and relaxation skills may help manage the stress the client is currently experiencing, it does not address identifying the source of the stress or the management of the type 2 diabetes.
While implementing effective exercise routines may help in the management of the type 2 diabe-tes, it does not address identifying the source of the stress or the thorough management of the type 2 diabetes.
