Question 2 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer fluoxetine 30 mg PO daily. The amount available is fluoxetine 10 mg/tablet. How many tablets should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Question 3 of 5
In the movie, Marcus, a 17-year-old teenager at the group home demonstrates that he is experiencing a maturational crisis. Which of the following best describes a maturational crisis in mental health for a teen?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A condition caused by genetic factors that affects mental health stability describes a genetic predisposition to mental health issues, not a maturational crisis. A severe mental illness that requires long-term psychiatric treatment is not necessarily temporary or related to a maturational crisis. A temporary state of emotional turmoil and confusion that arises during a predictable event and/or significant life transitions accurately describes a maturational crisis, which occurs during predictable life transitions such as adolescence. A chronic condition characterized by persistent mental health issues throughout the lifespan is not temporary and does not align with a maturational crisis.

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale:
To find out how many tablets are needed, divide the prescribed dose by the amount per tablet: 1400 mg ÷ 700 mg/tablet = 2 tablets.
Question 5 of 5
A client shows no facial expression when engaging in a game with peers during an outing in the park. The nurse uses which of the following terms when documenting the client's affect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Restricted affect indicates a limited range of emotions but not a complete lack of expression. Broad affect indicates a wide range of emotional expressions, which is not the case here. Blunt affect indicates a severe reduction in the intensity of emotional expression, but some expression is still present. Flat affect indicates a complete lack of emotional expression, which matches the client's behavior.
