PN NCLEX Practice Test Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

Which of the following activities demonstrate safe client handling practices? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: B,C,D

Rationale: Using a gait belt, two people for a comatose client, and three for a heavy client ensure safety and prevent injury. One person for a recent hip replacement risks falls or dislocation due to limited mobility.

Question 2 of 5

The women’s health nurse is caring for a 30-year-old client who wants to use the ethinyl estradiol and norelgestromin patch for contraception. Regarding this method of birth control, which finding should be most concerning to the nurse?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Deep venous thrombosis is a contraindication for estrogen-containing contraceptives like the patch due to increased clotting risk. Heavy menses, family history of breast cancer, and obesity are less critical.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is assessing for jaundice in a client who has dark skin. What is the best way to do this?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The sclera (white of the eyes) reliably shows yellowing in jaundice, even in dark skin, unlike stool color, nail beds, or fingers, which are less specific.

Question 4 of 5

The health care provider prescribes paroxetine to a client with depression. What statement by the client indicates proper understanding of the medication?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Paroxetine may cause weight gain, so a healthy diet and exercise are appropriate. Stopping abruptly risks withdrawal, full effects take weeks, and sexual dysfunction is a common side effect.

Question 5 of 5

A nurse is asked to float to the telemetry unit because the unit is short-staffed. The nurse is not familiar with this client population and is concerned about providing safe client care. What is the best action by the nurse?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Accepting the assignment and clarifying required skills ensures safe care with support, addressing concerns proactively. Refusing or deferring may disrupt staffing, and reading policies delays care.
