What is the primary role in which the nurse works when leading a health-promotion group?
1. Provider of care
2. Manager of care
3. Facilitator of the process
4. Member of the discipline of nursing
Correct Answer: 3
Whereas all of these roles are inherent in health-promotion work, the nurse's primary role is as facilitator of the process. The nurse works with the client, not for the client, and not as director of the client's health.
