ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse and the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) are caring for clients on a medical floor. Which nursing task could be delegated to the UAP?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Routine vital sign collection is within UAP scope, unlike post-medication BP, HCP notification, or lab discussions.
Question 2 of 5
The client with a deficiency of the immune system questions the nurse about the use of ginseng. Which information should the nurse teach the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Ginseng should not be used continuously (>2 months) due to risks like hypertension or insomnia, especially in immunocompromised clients. Daily dosing, caffeine, or no contraindications are inaccurate.
Question 3 of 5
Which comment by the client diagnosed with rule-out Guillain-Barré (GB) syndrome is most significant when completing the admission interview?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Recent gastroenteritis (e.g., Campylobacter) is a known trigger for Guillain-Barré, making it significant.
Question 4 of 5
Which expected outcome should be included in the plan of care for a postoperative client practicing guided imagery?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Guided imagery reduces pain perception, so a decreased pain score is the expected outcome. WBC count, urine output, and dressing drainage are unrelated.
Question 5 of 5
Which client should the charge nurse of the day surgery unit assign to a new graduate nurse in orientation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The myelogram client is stable, suitable for a new graduate, unlike hypotensive, confused, or ICU-bound clients requiring advanced skills.
