NCLEX PN Prep Questions Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse practicing on a long-term care unit cares for a client with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Which action should the nurse assign to experienced unlicensed assistive personnel?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Checking blood glucose and reporting results is within UAP scope if trained. Teaching, monitoring for hypoglycemia, and updating care plans require nursing judgment and are outside UAP scope.

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is observing a 3-year-old client for expected developmental milestones. It would require follow-up if the client cannot

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Copying a square is expected by age 4-5, not 3, indicating a fine motor delay requiring follow-up. Catching a ball, eating with a spoon, and hopping are age-appropriate or slightly advanced for a 3-year-old.

Question 3 of 5

Following change-of-shift report on an orthopedic unit, which client should the nurse see first?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Look for the client who has the most imminent risks and acute vulnerability. The client who returned from surgery 2 hours ago is at risk for life threatening hemorrhage and should be seen first.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client who had a total thyroidectomy. What should the nurse plan to observe the client for immediately after his return to the nursing care unit?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
Total thyroidectomy risks parathyroid gland damage, leading to hypocalcemia (not hypercalcemia). However, the question likely intends hypocalcemia signs (tetany, spasms), which are critical to monitor immediately post-surgery. Hoarseness, reflexes, or confusion are less urgent.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is experiencing repeated unwanted sexual advances from a health care provider (HCP). Which of the following actions should the nurse take? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: A,B,C,D

Rationale: Seeking support aids coping, reviewing policy clarifies procedures, reporting to a supervisor initiates formal action, and documentation provides evidence. Confronting outside work risks escalation and is unsafe.
