Question 1 of 5
The nurse conducting a community health promotion class on sexuality includes that a person's biologic sex is determined by:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because biologic sex is determined by a person's external and internal genitalia, which are physical characteristics present at birth. This is based on chromosomal and anatomical factors. Choice A is incorrect as sexual intercourse does not determine biologic sex. Choice C refers to gender identity, not biologic sex. Choice D is about sexual orientation, which is different from biologic sex.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following client situations is appropriate to delegate to an unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because feeding assistance is a task that can be safely delegated to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) as long as the client does not have any swallowing difficulties. UAPs are trained to provide basic care and assistance with activities of daily living. In this case, feeding is a routine task that does not require specialized nursing knowledge or assessment skills. Choices B, C, and D involve tasks that require nursing assessment, critical thinking, and potentially specialized skills, and therefore should not be delegated to UAPs. Choice B involves potential infection control risks and requires knowledge of catheter care. Choice C involves assessing a client's condition, which requires nursing judgment. Choice D involves discussing discharge planning and services, which requires nursing knowledge and communication skills.
