A new resident's admission pack may include

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: A water pitcher and cup. This is essential for hydration and accessibility for the resident. Special medication (A) should be administered by healthcare professionals. While a stethoscope (B) and a watch for measuring pulse rate (C) are important medical tools, they are not typically included in an admission pack for a new resident. Providing water pitcher and cup promotes self-care and hydration, which are crucial for the resident's well-being.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Widen or open. When an object dilates, it increases in size while maintaining its proportions. This is typically seen in geometry when scaling a figure up or down. Choice A is incorrect because dilate means to expand, not contract. Choice B is also incorrect as dilating does not involve speeding up. Choice C is wrong because dilating does not involve slowing down but rather expanding. The term dilate specifically refers to widening or opening up, making choice D the correct answer.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Urostomy. A urostomy is a surgical procedure that diverts the passage of urine from the bladder to a stoma on the abdomen. It is typically done when the bladder is not functioning properly. A colostomy (A) diverts the passage of feces, not urine. An ileostomy (B) diverts the passage of feces from the ileum. A gastrostomy (D) is a surgical opening into the stomach for feeding purposes, not for diverting urine.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Continuous bladder irrigation. Following surgery, continuous bladder irrigation is typically ordered to flush out a urinary catheter and prevent blockages or infections. This process involves a continuous flow of sterile solution into the bladder through the catheter. The solution helps to keep the catheter clear and maintain urinary drainage. A: Indwelling catheter care involves routine maintenance and cleaning of the catheter but does not involve flushing out the catheter with a continuous flow of solution. B: Straight catheterization is a one-time procedure to drain the bladder and is not used for continuous flushing of the catheter. D: Bladder retraining is a technique used to improve bladder control and does not involve flushing out a urinary catheter.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Gangrene. Gangrene refers to the death of body tissue due to a lack of blood supply or bacterial infection. Eczema (choice A) is a skin condition characterized by inflammation and itching, not tissue death. Hematoma (choice B) is a collection of blood outside of blood vessels. Psoriasis (choice D) is a chronic autoimmune skin condition, not related to tissue death. Therefore, the term "gangrene" specifically describes the death of tissue, making it the correct answer.
