Questions 100% Solved.


The nurse on a busy acute care floor identifies that several clients with heart failure are being

readmitted within 2 weeks of discharge. Which step in performance improvement is the nurse

demonstrating? - answer✔Discovering a problem


Explanation:

Discovering the problem by detecting that there are several readmissions with heart failure is the

first step in the process of performance improvement. The next step would be to plan a strategy

using indicators, which includes calling an interdisciplinary meeting. The team would then

implement a change and, lastly, assess whether the change was effective.

Explanation:

Standards are the "levels of performance accepted by and expected of nursing staff or other

health team members." Criteria are "measurable qualities, attributes, or characteristics that

identify skill, knowledge, or health status." Evidence-based practice incorporates delivering

nursing care that evidence supports as likely to result in meeting the expected client outcomes.

Evaluation involves measuring how well the client has achieved the outcomes that were set forth

in the plan of care.

Which of the following best summarizes the evaluation step of the nursing process?

The nurse completes a health assessment to establish a database.

The client and family have met health care goals and no longer need care.

The nurse and client identify nursing diagnoses and appropriate interventions.


The nurse and client measure achievement of planned outcomes of care. - answer✔he nurse and

client measure achievement of planned outcomes of care.

Explanation:

In evaluation, which is the fifth step of the nursing process, the nurse and client together measure

how well the client has achieved the outcomes specified in the plan of care. Establishing a health

assessment is the first stage of the nursing process. Identifying nursing diagnosis is the second

stage and implementation of care is the fourth stage. When the client no longer needs care, the

relationship is terminated.

Reference:

Which nurse is using criteria to determine expected standards of performance?

The nurse manager provides the staff nurse feedback regarding job performance for the previous

year.

The nurse seeks information from the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) regarding the

family's response to the nurse's education.

The new graduate nurse consults the policies and procedures of the institution prior to skill

implementation.

The nurse preceptor provides feedback to the new graduate nurse after 6 weeks of orientation. -

answer✔The new graduate nurse consults the policies and procedures of the institution prior to

skill implementation.

Explanation:

Standards are the levels of performance accepted and expected by the nursing staff and other

health team members, such as institutional policies and procedures. The nurse preceptor

providing feedback to the new graduate nurse after 6 weeks of orientation is an example of peer

review. The nurse manager providing the staff nurse feedback regarding job performance for the

previous year is typical of an annual employee review. The nurse seeking input from the UAP on

a family's response to education is inappropriate, as the nurse may not delegate evaluation to the

UAP.
