Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Data are collected and communicated in the assessment phase of the nursing process. Establishing goals is the function of planning. Implementing the NCP is the function of implementation. Measuring outcome achievement is the function of evaluation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Diagnostic statements identify problems a nurse is independently able to treat within the scope of professional practice. Nursing diagnoses vary with the changing condition of the patient. The response patterns are unique to the patient and are not disease specific. Nursing diagnoses describe the patient's human response pattern.
