KOZIER AND ERBS FUNDAMENTALS OF NURSING 10TH EDITION BERMAN TEST BANK 5) While a nurse is conducting a health assessment, the individual asks why the term "patient" is being used. What should the nurse explain about the implication of the term "patient"? 1. The person is seeking assistance because of illness. 2. The individual is proactive in his or her health care needs. 3. The person is a collaborator in his or her care. 4. The individual is using a service or commodity. Answer: 1 Explanation: 1. The word patient comes from a Latin word meaning "to suffer" or "to bear." Usually, people become patients when they seek assistance because of illness or for surgery. Some nurses believe that the word patient implies passive acceptance of the decisions and care of health professionals, which would be opposite of being proactive in one's health care needs. The term client presents the recipient of health care as a collaborator in that care, along with the people who are providing service. A consumer is an individual, a group of people, or a community that uses a service or commodity.

National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) 4. Nurse State Practice Act Answer: 4 Explanation: 4. Nurse practice acts regulate the practice of nursing in the United States and Canada.

What did the manager observe to come to this conclusion? 1. Recognizing characteristics considered to be professional 2. Maintaining specific character and spirit 3. Learning about the influences of Florence Nightingale 4. Promising to uphold the standards of the profession Answer: 2 Explanation: 2. Professionalism refers to professional character, spirit, or methods. It is a set of attributes and a way of life that implies responsibility and commitment. Florence Nightingale influenced nursing professionalism a great deal, but simply learning about her influence does not constitute professionalism because professionalism refers to a way of life. Professionalization is the process of becoming professional, which is acquiring characteristics considered to be professional and upholding the standards of a profession.

Delivering medications and prescribed treatments in a timely manner 2. Prioritizing client according to client needs 3. Communicating with peers when help is needed 4. Informing the supervisor about high acuity level and staff-to-client ratio Answer: 2 Explanation: 2. Autonomy in nursing means independence at work, responsibility, and accountability for one's actions. Making decisions about which client requires care according to need s is an example of autonomy. Carrying out physician orders would be an example of nursing care, but not independence. Communication is important in any profession, as is making concerns known to supervisors, but these are not examples of controlling activi ty—a hallmark of autonomy.

What should the instructor emphasize as being important for the students to be aware of? 1. Passage of the Affordable Care Act 2. Consumer presence on the boards of nursing associations and regulatory agencies 3. Diagnostic -related groups (DRGs) 4. Advances in science and technology Answer: 1 Explanation: 1. With the passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010, health care delivery shifted in focus from acute care to primary preventive care and treatment of chronic conditions using health care teams and information technology. Other forces include consumer demands, family structure, and science and technology. DRGs are a cla ssification system that categorically establishes pretreatment billing based on diagnosis. Although this is an aspect of economic factors affecting nursing, it is not the underlying cause of more personnel being employed in community -based settings.

For what should the nurse assess these patients when determining their degree of vulnerability? 1. Distance separation from their nuclear families 2. Increased levels of poverty 3. Raising children without the support of family 4. The normal difficulties of adolescence Answer: 4 Explanation: 4. Teenage mothers have the normal needs of teenagers as well as those of new mothers, with motherhood compounding the difficulties of adolescence. Although many teenage mothers are raising children alone, without the support of the baby's father or perhaps their own families, and many live in poverty, all are vulnerable because of their age.

What should the nurse respond to this client? 1. "Information from the Internet isn't always accurate." 2. "It's best to check this information with your physician." 3. "Bring your information to the clinic so we can go through it together." 4. "I'd prefer you rely on information you haven't received from our office." Answer: 3 Explanation: 3. Nurses may need to interpret Internet sources of information to clients and their families. Although 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.
