, A female patient who is receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer tells the nurse,
"The treatment for this cancer is worse than the disease itself. I'm not going to
come for my therapy anymore." The nurse responds by using critical thinking skills
to address this patient problem. Which action is the first step the nurse would
take in this process?
a. The nurse judges whether the patient database is adequate to address the
problem.
b. The nurse considers whether or not to suggest a counseling session for the
patient.
c. The nurse reassesses the patient and decides how best to intervene in her care.
d. The nurse identifies several options for intervening in the patient's care and
critiques the merit of each option. - Answer c. The first step when thinking
critically about a situation is to identify the purpose or goal of your thinking.
Reassessing the patient helps to discipline thinking by directing all thoughts
toward the goal. Once the problem is addressed, it is important for the nurse to
judge the adequacy of the knowledge, identify potential problems, use helpful
resources, and critique the decision.


The nursing process ensures that nurses are person centered rather than task
centered. Rather than simply approaching a patient to take vital signs, the nurse
thinks, "How is Mrs. Barclay today? Are our nursing actions helping her to achieve
her goals? How can we better help her?" This demonstrates which characteristic
of the nursing process?
a. Systematic
b. Interpersonal
c. Dynamic
d. Universally applicable in nursing situations - Answer b. Interpersonal. All of the
other options are characteristics of the nursing process, but the conversation and
thinking quoted best illustrates the interpersonal dimension of the nursing
process
