The answer to question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Information that is perceived only by the person experiencing it is subjective data. Evaluative data is used to assess responses to care. Qualitative data refers to the presence or absence of a factor. Objective data can be measured by someone or something other than the patient.

The answer to question 2

Correct Answer: 1

The evaluation step allows the nurse to determine whether the plan was effective and whether to continue, revise, or terminate the plan. The outcome criteria that were established during the planning step provide the basis for evaluation. During the assessment phase, the nurse is actively collecting data. Implementation is the phase of the nursing process during which the nurse performs interventions. Determining the needs of the patient and devising a plan of action take place during the planning phase.

The answer to question 3

Correct Answer: 1

The nursing process can serve as a framework for the evaluation of quality care. The use of critical pathways, variance analysis, and evidence-based practice would not provide the best, recommended means to evaluate a patient care process.

The answer to question 4

Correct Answer: 1

Reflective thinking involves two kinds of thinking. Reflecting-in-action occurs while a situation is being addressed. Reflecting-on-action is deliberate, occurs after an event, and creates embodied knowledge and skillfulness that will influence what the nurse perceives as salient when confronted with similar patient situations in the future. Divergent thinking is the ability to weigh the importance of information. Systematic thinking involves collecting, analyzing, and organizing information in a methodical manner that supports development of pattern recognition. Creative thinking involves clinical imagination that integrates science, skilled know-how, and practical knowledge to develop unique solutions to individual patient needs.
