Question 1 of 5

An RN is writing reminders for good documentation for the nurses on her staff. The purpose is to ensure nursing documentation is legally credible. Which of the following is a recommendation she should include in the reminders?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct recommendation that should be included in the reminders for ensuring legally credible nursing documentation is to 'Only use approved abbreviations.' Using shortcuts in documentation (Choice A) may lead to incomplete or vague information, compromising the credibility of documentation. Documentation should not be subjective (Choice C) but rather objective and based on factual information. While it is important to document after care is provided (Choice D), the immediate documentation following care provision is critical for accuracy and legal credibility.

Question 2 of 5

Horizontal violence may be observed among staff interactions and causes stress among staff. To minimize stress associated with such interactions, nurses can: (Select all that apply.)

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To minimize stress associated with horizontal violence among staff interactions, nurses should take control of the situation by being assertive. Being assertive allows nurses to address the issues causing stress in a constructive and professional manner. Encouraging venting without addressing the underlying problems may not resolve the situation effectively. Ignoring staff who are volatile can escalate the issue further, and avoiding interactions with angry staff does not address the root cause of the problem. Therefore, being assertive and addressing the situation directly is the most effective approach to minimize stress and promote a healthy work environment.

Question 3 of 5

A nurse is planning an educational program for a group of older adults at a senior living center. Which of the following recommendations should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The CDC recommends a pneumococcal vaccine for all adults aged 65 years and older. This vaccine helps protect against serious pneumococcal disease. Choice B is incorrect as the shingles vaccine is recommended for adults aged 50 years and older, not specifically at 70 years. Choice C is incorrect because a tetanus booster is recommended every 10 years, not every 5 years. Choice D is incorrect as the general recommendation for eye examinations in older adults is annually, not every 2 years.

Question 4 of 5

A recent ethical issue has resulted in uneasiness and discomfort for several nurses on a unit. The unit manager has decided to discuss the issues at the next team meeting. The situation has resulted in which of the following for some of the nurses?

Question 5 of 5

The nurse manager is responsible for implementing a new electronic health record (EHR) system. What is the first step in this process?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct first step in implementing a new electronic health record (EHR) system is to identify the project team. This team will be crucial in overseeing the entire implementation process, including tasks like developing a training program (Choice C) and conducting a needs assessment (Choice D). Training all staff on the new system (Choice A) is an important step but typically occurs after the project team has been identified to ensure a smooth and efficient implementation.
