Question 1 of 5
A nurse is talking with a client who is about to start using transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to manage chronic pain. Which of the following statements should the nurse identify as an indication that the client needs further teaching?

Question 3 of 5
A hospice nurse is providing teaching to a client who has a new diagnosis of a terminal illness and her family. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because hospice care provides ongoing support to families with grief even after a patient's death.
Choice A is incorrect because hospice care focuses on providing comfort and symptom management rather than disease treatment and rehabilitation.
Choice B is incorrect as the statement does not accurately reflect the role of a hospice provider.
Choice C is incorrect; a family caregiver is not a prerequisite for admission into a hospice facility.
Question 4 of 5
A healthcare provider is providing a report to a colleague about a client who weighs 210 lb and has a prescription for one-third weight bearing on the right leg. How many kg of weight should the client bear on the right leg?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To calculate the weight-bearing limit, we first need to convert 210 lbs to kg.
To do this, we use the conversion factor 1 lb = 0.453592 kg. So, 210 lbs is equal to 210 * 0.453592 = 95.254 kg. One-third of 95.254 kg is 31.7513 kg, which can be rounded to 32 kg.
Therefore, the client should bear 32 kg of weight on the right leg.
Choice A is the correct answer.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation based on the client's weight and the prescribed weight-bearing limit.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is using the ecologic model for population health to develop interventions to address HIV in a community. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include to address financial factors affecting community health?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. Distributing condoms addresses financial barriers by providing access to essential protective measures in remote areas.
Choice A focuses on education rather than direct intervention related to financial factors.
Choice C involves advertising and not a direct intervention to address financial factors.
Choice D pertains to education about HIV transmission rather than directly addressing financial barriers affecting community health.
