Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The Ambulance Squad is the module composed of four medical specialists and two vehicles. This squad is responsible for providing medical care during transportation. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not match the description provided in the question. The Patient Holding Squad focuses on a different aspect of patient care, the Surgical Squad is more specialized in surgical procedures, and the Area Support Squad provides a different type of support.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct intervention for the nurse to initiate first is to notify the client's healthcare provider of the client's stated intent to leave the hospital. This action is crucial as it ensures that the client's care and safety are appropriately managed. Option A is not the best choice as involving the family to persuade the client may not address the client's underlying concerns. Option B is incorrect because having the client sign self-discharge papers without further assessment is not appropriate. Option C is also incorrect as the client's request for treatment does not prevent them from leaving if they are deemed competent to make that decision.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct method described in option C helps maintain spinal alignment while moving from a lying to a standing position, which is crucial after a lumbar laminectomy with spinal fusion. This technique minimizes strain on the back and promotes safe movement. Choices A, B, and D involve movements that could potentially strain the back, increase the risk of injury, or compromise the spinal alignment, making them less optimal for the client recovering from such surgery.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct action for the nurse to implement when unable to auscultate a pericardial friction rub in a client diagnosed with pericarditis is to ask the client to lean forward and listen again. Leaning forward can help bring the heart closer to the chest wall, making it easier to detect the rub. Option A (Notifying the healthcare provider) is incorrect because further assessment is needed before escalating the situation. Option B (Documenting that the pericarditis has resolved) is incorrect as the absence of a friction rub does not necessarily mean resolution. Option D (Preparing to insert a unilateral chest tube) is incorrect as this intervention is not indicated for the absence of a friction rub.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is to wear extra warm clothing during cold exposure. This instruction is crucial for managing Raynaud's phenomenon as it helps prevent vasospasms triggered by cold temperatures. Choice A is incorrect because exacerbations can occur in any season. Choice B is not directly related to managing Raynaud's phenomenon. Choice D is also irrelevant as direct sunlight exposure does not typically worsen symptoms of Raynaud's phenomenon.
