Question 1 of 5
A healthcare provider is caring for a client who has anorexia nervosa. Which of the following interdisciplinary team members should be consulted in regards to client care?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A case manager is the most appropriate interdisciplinary team member to consult for a client with anorexia nervosa. They can help coordinate care, resources, and communication between various healthcare professionals involved in the client's treatment. Consulting an occupational therapist (
Choice
A) may not directly address the primary concerns associated with anorexia nervosa. While nutritional therapists (

Question 2 of 5
Which of the following best describes cultural competence in healthcare?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cultural competence in healthcare involves understanding and respecting cultural differences to provide effective and respectful care to patients from diverse backgrounds.
Choice A is incorrect as ignoring cultural differences goes against the principles of cultural competence.
Choice C is wrong because enforcing cultural norms can be culturally insensitive and may not align with the patient's beliefs.
Choice D is also incorrect as cultural competence encompasses more than just medical knowledge, including communication, empathy, and awareness of cultural factors.
Question 3 of 5
A client is preparing for an elective mastectomy. The client is wearing a plain gold wedding band. Which of the following is an appropriate procedure for taking care of this client's ring?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In this scenario, placing the client's ring in the facility safe is the most appropriate procedure. This ensures the ring is kept secure and prevents any risk of loss or damage during the surgery. Agreeing to keep the ring for the client could raise concerns about accountability, while placing it in the bag with the client's clothing might lead to misplacement. Taping the ring securely to the client's finger is not recommended as it may hinder blood circulation or cause discomfort.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following strategies can help improve patient adherence to treatment plans?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Providing clear and understandable instructions can help improve patient adherence to treatment plans. Clear instructions help patients better understand their treatment plans, leading to increased compliance.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Using medical jargon can confuse patients and reduce adherence. Limiting patient education deprives patients of essential information needed for adherence. Ignoring patient feedback can lead to misunderstandings and hinder the patient's commitment to the treatment plan.
Question 5 of 5

Rationale: The twelfth cranial nerve is the hypoglossal nerve, which controls the muscles of the tongue. The other choices are incorrect because the trochlear nerve is the fourth cranial nerve responsible for eye movement, the olfactory nerve is the first cranial nerve responsible for the sense of smell, and there are only twelve cranial nerves, so there is no thirteenth cranial nerve.
