Correct Answer: A

Rationale: When caring for clients with clostridium difficile infection, it is important to prevent the spread of the bacteria. Having family members wear a gown and gloves when visiting helps reduce the risk of transmission. Cleaning contaminated surfaces with a bleach solution, not phenol, is recommended to effectively kill the C. difficile spores. Using alcohol-based hand sanitizer is not sufficient, as it may not be effective against C. difficile spores. Assigning the client to a room with a private bathroom is more beneficial than a negative airflow system, as it helps prevent the spread of bacteria to other clients.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answers are B and C. The NDMS is designed to provide medical response during disasters, assist in patient movement, and offer definitive care to disaster victims. This includes organizing teams of healthcare providers with specialized skills and equipment to respond effectively to emergencies. Patient evacuation from disaster areas to safer locations is also a key function of the NDMS to ensure the well-being of those affected by the disaster. Options A and D are incorrect because the NDMS does not provide bomb disposal services and is primarily focused on medical response rather than mental health care.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Employees are eligible to take a leave of absence if they have worked for the employer for at least 12 months, have worked at least 1,250 hours during the previous 12 months, and are at a work site with 50 or more employees, or at a site where 50 workers are employed within 75 miles of the work site. The statement 'At least six months' is incorrect as the requirement is for 12 months of work to be eligible for a leave of absence.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Active and assertive communication will assist each generation to value the others’ skills and perspectives.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'the length of the client's stay.' The length of the client's stay is a critical factor in determining the cost-effectiveness of care after hip arthroplasty. Shorter stays typically result in lower costs as they reduce resource utilization and associated expenses. Choices A, B, and D are not directly related to evaluating cost-effectiveness in this scenario. The age of the client, availability of community support groups, and the type of insurance carried may impact other aspects of care but do not directly assess the cost-effectiveness of the care provided.
