Regular physical assessments help ensure that any health issues are identified promptly and addressed appropriately, promoting the overall well-being and academic performance of the students.

Rationale: The Magna Carta for health workers is a law that specifically aims to promote the well-being and living conditions of health workers, particularly those employed in government-managed health facilities. It sets out the rights and benefits of health workers, addresses issues such as compensation, benefits, and working conditions, and promotes their professional growth and development. This law is crucial in ensuring that health workers are adequately supported and protected in the delivery of quality healthcare services to the public.
Question 4 of 5
In her capacity to teach, the nurse describes the changes of the uterus after childbirth to return to a nonpregnant state as _____
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Involution refers to the process of the uterus returning to its nonpregnant state after childbirth. During pregnancy, the uterus undergoes significant changes and enlarges to accommodate the growing fetus. After childbirth, the uterus begins to contract, leading to a decrease in its size and a return to its pre-pregnant state. This process involves the shedding of the excess endometrial tissue and the reduction of the size of the uterine muscle fibers. It is a normal and essential process for postpartum recovery. Failure of the uterus to undergo proper involution is known as subinvolution, which can lead to complications such as postpartum hemorrhage.
Question 5 of 5
After washing her hands and gently cleaning any discharge that can be removed easily from the outer ear, Nurse Selma positions the child. Which of the following steps follows?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct next step after positioning the child is to drop the medicine into the ear canal. This is typically the next step in administering ear drops for a child. The cleaning and positioning steps are to prepare the ear for receiving the medication. Dropping the medicine into the ear canal ensures that the medication can reach the affected area effectively. Once the medicine is dropped into the ear canal, it is important to follow any additional instructions provided by the healthcare provider regarding keeping the ear in a certain position or any other post-administration care steps.
