Question 1 of 5

A nurse is discussing organ donation with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Asking clients over 18 about their organ donation status upon admission is essential to ensure their wishes are respected. Option A is incorrect because organ donation requires consent, not harvesting. Option B is incorrect because the transplant team, not the donor client's provider, is responsible for organ retrieval. Option D is incorrect because the National Organ Transplant Act prohibits the commercialization of organ transactions, not their donation.

Question 2 of 5

A healthcare provider is reviewing the medical record of a client who has a new prescription for cimetidine. Which of the following laboratory findings should the healthcare provider identify as the priority to report to the provider?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: An elevated AST level is indicative of liver damage, which is the priority finding to report to the provider when administering cimetidine. Elevated liver enzymes can be a sign of liver toxicity or damage. Monitoring liver function is crucial when using cimetidine, as it can sometimes lead to hepatotoxicity. The other laboratory findings are within normal ranges and not directly associated with cimetidine administration.

Question 3 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 4 of 5

During an initial visit, a home health nurse is assessing a client who has cultural beliefs different from their own. Which of the following questions should the nurse ask to determine the client's beliefs about environmental control?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct question to ask in this scenario is: 'What do you think you can do to affect your health status?' This question directly addresses the client's beliefs about their ability to control their health and reflects their beliefs about environmental control. Choices A, B, and D do not directly relate to assessing the client's beliefs about environmental control. Choice A focuses on time orientation, choice B pertains to family decision-making dynamics, and choice D is related to family medical history, which are not directly relevant to understanding the client's beliefs about environmental control.

Question 5 of 5

In the context of personality disorders, what is a common characteristic of a client with Borderline Personality Disorder?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Fear of abandonment and impulsiveness. Individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder often exhibit intense fears of abandonment, engage in impulsive behaviors such as self-harm or substance abuse, and struggle with unstable relationships. Choices A, B, and D do not align with the characteristic features commonly associated with Borderline Personality Disorder. A need for admiration and grandiosity (Choice A) is more characteristic of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Unlawful actions and lack of empathy (Choice B) are more typical of Antisocial Personality Disorder. A disregard for others with manipulative behaviors (Choice D) is often seen in individuals with traits of Histrionic or Antisocial Personality Disorders.
