Question 1 of 4
A client has a new prescription for folic acid and believes it's only for pregnant women. What statement should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because folic acid is essential for the production of red blood cells in adults and children, not just for pregnant women. Option A is incorrect as folic acid is not exclusive to pregnant women. Option B is incorrect as a balanced diet may not provide sufficient folic acid. Option D is incorrect since folic acid supplementation is also recommended for other reasons beyond deficiency.
Question 2 of 4
A nurse enters a client's room and finds her on the floor. The client's roommate reports that the client was trying to get out of bed and fell over the bedrail onto the floor. Which of the following statements should the nurse document about this incident?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: Found on floor.' This choice provides a clear and objective account of the situation without adding interpretation or assumptions. It is crucial to document only the facts observed directly. Choices B and C introduce speculation by suggesting how the incident happened, which the nurse did not witness. Choice D is not directly related to the nurse's observation and should not be documented as the primary incident.
Question 3 of 4
While obtaining the health and medication history of a client with a respiratory infection, the nurse learns that the client developed a rash the last time she took an antibiotic despite not being aware of any allergies. What information should the nurse provide to the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is to instruct the client to document the exact medication taken. This is crucial for preventing future allergic reactions. By knowing the specific antibiotic that caused the rash, healthcare providers can avoid prescribing it again, reducing the risk of an allergic response. Choice B, 'Ignore the symptom,' is incorrect as ignoring a potential allergic reaction can lead to more severe complications. Choice C, 'Stop taking antibiotics,' is not advisable without proper guidance from a healthcare provider. Choice D, 'Continue with the current medication,' is also not recommended when there is a history of a rash related to antibiotic use.

Choice C, Normal skin moisture, does not provide specific information related to pressure ulcers. Choice D, No signs of infection, while important, is not a direct finding associated with pressure ulcers.
