Question 1 of 5

The nurse is aware that norepinephrine is secreted by which endocrine gland?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: The adrenal medulla. Norepinephrine is secreted by the adrenal medulla and is involved in the body's 'fight or flight' response. The pancreas (choice A) secretes insulin and glucagon, not norepinephrine. The adrenal cortex (choice B) secretes hormones like cortisol and aldosterone, but not norepinephrine. The anterior pituitary gland (choice D) secretes various hormones like growth hormone and thyroid-stimulating hormone, but not norepinephrine.

Question 2 of 5

The unlicensed nursing assistant is applying elastic compression stockings to the client. Which action by the assistant warrants immediate intervention by the nurse?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because compression stockings should be applied while the client is lying down to prevent pooling of blood in the legs, which can occur when the client is sitting or standing. Choice B is not a cause for immediate intervention as inserting two fingers under the proximal end of the stocking helps ensure proper fit. Choice C demonstrates the correct technique of elevating the feet while lying down to put on the stockings. Choice D also shows good care by making sure the toes were warm after putting the stockings on.

Question 3 of 5

What is the COMMZ level hospital whose principal mission is to treat and rehabilitate those patients who can return to duty within the stated theater evacuation policy?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: GH (General Hospital). General Hospitals have the principal mission of treating and rehabilitating patients who can return to duty within the theater evacuation policy. FSB (Forward Surgical Hospital), CSH (Combat Support Hospital), and FH (Field Hospital) do not focus on treating and rehabilitating patients for duty within the theater evacuation policy, making them incorrect choices.

Question 4 of 5

Under what circumstances can personal health information be disclosed?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Personal health information can be disclosed under specific circumstances such as compliance with legal proceedings, for research purposes in limited situations, and to a family member or significant other in emergencies. Choice D, 'All of the above,' is the correct answer because it encompasses all the situations where disclosure of personal health information is permissible. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they represent individual scenarios where disclosure can occur, but the comprehensive answer is that personal health information can be disclosed in all these situations, not just one or two.

Question 5 of 5

Listed below are five categories that identify the responsibilities of the practical nurse manager in personnel management. Which of these categories is most appropriate for the task of 'Recommend awards and promotions'?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Accountability.' Accountability involves recommending awards and promotions as part of managing personnel. This responsibility revolves around assessing employee performance and recognizing achievements through awards and promotions. Choice B, 'Personal/professional development,' focuses on enhancing employees' skills and knowledge, not specifically related to recommending awards or promotions. Choice C, 'Individual training,' pertains to providing instruction and guidance to improve specific skills, not directly linked to awarding or promoting individuals. Choice D, 'Military appearance/physical condition,' deals with maintaining physical standards and presentation, unrelated to recommending awards and promotions.
