Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client in a mental health facility. The client's daughter is crying and tells the nurse that she feels guilty for leaving her father in the hospital. Which of the following is an appropriate response?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct response is A: 'I'd like to know more about what's bothering you.' Encouraging the daughter to express her feelings allows her to explore her emotions, which can be helpful in addressing her guilt and providing emotional support.
Choice B is not as open-ended and may come across as confrontational.
Choice C may invalidate the daughter's feelings of guilt by implying she shouldn't feel that way.
Choice D assumes the father's emotions and may not address the daughter's feelings of guilt effectively.

Question 2 of 5

A client with heart failure is receiving discharge teaching. Which statement by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Swelling in the feet can indicate worsening heart failure due to fluid retention, and clients should report this to their healthcare provider immediately.

Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because weighing once a week may not provide timely information on fluid retention, timing of diuretic medication is usually advised in the morning to prevent nocturia, and limiting fluid intake to 3 liters per day may not be appropriate for all clients with heart failure.

Question 5 of 5

A nurse is providing teaching about breastfeeding to a client who is postpartum. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Choice A is incorrect because washing nipples with soap after each feeding can lead to dryness and cracking.
Choice B is incorrect as babies should nurse on demand rather than on a strict schedule of 5 minutes every 4 hours.
