The nurse is caring for clients in the student health center.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The nurse should first assess the client’s exposure risk, as hepatitis B is transmitted through sexual contact or parenteral routes. Asking about unprotected sex determines the need for Test ing or prophylaxis. Empathizing, recommending Test ing, or discussing HBIG are secondary to assessing exposure.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is assigned to work with the parents of a retarded child.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A family assessment is essential to understand the parents’ grieving, coping, and support needs, guiding tailored interventions. Interpreting grief, discussing placement, or assisting with plans are premature without first assessing the family’s situation.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following nursing actions would be MOST appropriate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Strategy: Answers are a mix of assessments and implementations. Does this situation require assessment? Yes. Is there an appropriate assessment? Yes. (1) assessment, correct information, but is not what the question asks for (2) correct-assessment, will assist in determining if hydration can be done through oral fluids alone (3) implementation, does not do anything to improve the situation; placing a full bottle at the bedside doesn't guarantee that the infant is taking fluids (4) implementation, would be implemented later
