ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The client diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease is being discharged. Which nursing task can be delegated to a trained unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Cleaning the room is within UAP scope, unlike teaching, IV removal, or lab monitoring.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse at the Family Planning Clinic is preparing a discussion for students attending a community college about contraception and methods to prevent pregnancy. Which information should the nurse include in the presentation?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Condoms prevent STDs, a key public health message for students. Annual exams are recommended but secondary, hormonal delivery methods are specific, and not all contraception requires prescriptions (e.g., condoms).
Question 3 of 5
The 44-year-old female client calls the clinic and tells the nurse she felt a lump while performing breast self-examination (BSE). Which question should the nurse ask the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The timing of the last menstrual period helps correlate the lump with hormonal changes, which can cause benign cysts, guiding further evaluation.
Question 4 of 5
The unlicensed assistive personnel asked the wound care nurse why a client has cabbage leaves on the wound. Which statement would be the best response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Cabbage leaves have documented anti-inflammatory properties, used in folk medicine. Calling it ignorance, placebo, or only moisture is dismissive or inaccurate.
