When genetics and genomics were incorporated into nursing, the decision was made to include them in what part of the nursing process?
A) Interventions that support identification of the genetics-related health needs of people
B) Responses to nursing interventions that support generalized nursing care
C) The planning of interventions that address the medical genetic needs of people
D) The psychosocial assessment of the genetic needs of people
Ans: A
Feedback: The incorporation of genetics and genomics into nursing means including genetics and genomics in health assessments, planning, and interventions that support identification of and response to the changing genetics-related health needs of people. The other answers are incorrect because the responses measured in genomic nursing care are not to generalized nursing care, nurses do not plan medical interventions, and interventions are not planned in the assessment phase of nursing care.
