Question 1 of 5

A client is refusing a blood transfusion for religious reasons. The client's partner wants the client to have the blood transfusion. Which of the following actions should be taken?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In this situation, the nurse should ask the client to consider a direct donation. This option respects the client's autonomy by exploring alternative options that align with the client's beliefs. Withholding the blood transfusion (choice B) goes against the client's wishes and autonomy. Requesting a consultation with the ethics committee (choice D) should be considered if there is a disagreement that cannot be resolved at the bedside, but it is not the initial step. Choice C is a duplicate of choice A and does not provide a different or additional action to address the situation.

Question 4 of 5

What is the difference between the amounts that were budgeted for specific revenue or cost and the actual revenue or cost that resulted during the course of activities?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, Variance. Variance represents the distinction between the planned budgeted amount for a particular revenue or cost and the actual amount that occurred during the activities. In financial management, variance analysis is crucial for assessing performance and identifying areas that deviate from the budgeted expectations. Choice A, 'Budget,' is incorrect as it refers to the planned amount rather than the difference between planned and actual amounts. Choice B, 'Variable,' does not specifically address the comparison between budgeted and actual figures. Choice D, 'Premiums,' is unrelated to the concept of comparing budgeted and actual values in the context of financial analysis.

Question 5 of 5

Which of the following is an example of an ethical dilemma in nursing?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. An ethical dilemma in nursing involves deciding whether to comply with a patient's request that conflicts with professional ethics, balancing competing values and principles. Choices A, B, and C do not directly represent ethical dilemmas in nursing. Choice A describes a general ethical dilemma, choice B involves professional conduct rather than a dilemma, and choice C refers to a confidentiality issue rather than conflicting ethical principles.
