A nurse assessed carefully and created a comprehensive intervention plan including primary, secondary, and tertiary care for individuals and families. Which of the following factors may the nurse have overlooked?
a. Are other staff members interested in such a project?
b. Are there adequate resources for such a project?
c. Is there support from the administration for the project?
d. Does the nurse have adequate energy and time for such a project?
ANS: B
The nurse must validate the practicality of any planned intervention. This can best be accomplished by examining if there are adequate resources for the project. Interest of other staff members, support from administration, and the nurse's time and energy should all be considered, but are irrelevant if there are not enough resources to implement the project.
