Patient Care Exam Questions Questions

Question 1 of 5

Knocking and requesting to enter a client's room supports the client's right to:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Privacy is upheld by knocking e.g., control unlike confidentiality , assistance , or services . PSWs respect this e.g., permission for dignity. Errors risk intrusion; this fits. This right ensures autonomy, a PSW ethic.

Question 2 of 5

When applying a transfer belt, it should be:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A transfer belt assists safe client movement, requiring proper application for effectiveness. Applied next to the skin ensures a secure grip without slipping, aligning with manufacturer guidelines and PSW training, which emphasize direct contact for stability during transfers. Tightened snugly risks discomfort or injury if too tight, while loose over clothing may slide, reducing control. Buckling in the back is impractical for quick access and support. Applied correctly against the skin, the belt provides a firm base for lifting or guiding, minimizing fall risk and ensuring safety, making it the standard and correct method.

Question 3 of 5

Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart are:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Arteries carry blood away from the heart, delivering oxygen-rich blood (except pulmonary arteries) to tissues, driven by heart pressure. Veins return blood to the heart, often oxygen-poor. Capillaries connect arteries and veins for exchange, not directional flow. Valves regulate flow within vessels, not vessels themselves. Circulatory anatomy, essential for PSWs taking vital signs, defines arteries by their outward role, confirmed by texts like Marieb's, making 'Arteries' the correct vessel type.

Question 4 of 5

Bathing helps:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Bathing serves multiple purposes in client care. It exercises body parts through movement, aiding circulation. It allows observation , letting PSWs spot skin changes or sores. It removes dead skin , promoting hygiene. All of these are true, as bathing integrates physical, observational, and cleansing benefits, per PSW hygiene training. This holistic impact enhances client well-being, making 'All of the above' the correct and comprehensive answer.

Question 5 of 5

Neglect can take the form of:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Neglect is failing to meet a client's needs, which can manifest as emotional/psychological abuse , like ignoring distress, or physical neglect , like not changing soiled linens. Sexual abuse involves specific acts, not neglect's omission. 'Both a and b' captures neglect's broad scope, as it can harm emotionally (isolation) or physically (hygiene neglect), per abuse definitions in PSW training. This inclusivity reflects real-world scenarios, making it the correct and comprehensive answer.
