NCLEX Practice Questions Skin Integrity and Wound Care Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which action by a nurse demonstrates conscious impermeability in the continuum of developing cultural humility?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Conscious impermeability is an early stage. Awareness of inequities with struggle , per humility continua, shows recognition without full integration (e.g., knowing bias but not acting). Spontaneous humility or synergy are advanced. Mindful learning is next. This fits the stage, making it the correct action.
Question 2 of 5
Which best represents a critical element of Patient-Centered Care?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Patient-centered care empowers. Involving patients in decision-making , per the test and IOM, respects preferences (e.g., treatment options), aligning with HCAHPS goals. Exceeding expectations isn't feasible. Technical terms confuse. Queue-jumping is unfair. Shared decision-making improves satisfaction and adherence, making it the correct element.
Question 3 of 5
Examples of computer based decision support include all except:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Decision support guides, doesn't enforce. Linking orders to indications , per the test, lacks active guidance (e.g., suggestions), unlike alerts , reminders , or order sets , per HIMSS definitions. It's a rule, not support. True decision support aids clinical judgment, making this the correct exception.
Question 4 of 5
The younger nurses on a unit, who seem to adapt easily to the new technology presented, are perceived as threatening by two nurses who have worked on the unit for years. The older nurses begin to ridicule the younger nurses, saying, 'You might be able to work a computer, but we know how to provide the care.' How should the charge nurse respond?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Conflict reflects subcultures. Discussing cultural conflict and value addresses generational differences, per nursing leadership, fostering teamwork (e.g., tech vs. experience). Forcing tech misjudges intent. Racism overstates; it's age-based. Ignoring escalates tension. This promotes mutual respect, making it the correct response.
Question 5 of 5
A client arriving at the emergency department has experienced frostbite to the right hand. Which finding would the nurse note on assessment of the client's hand?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Frostbite shows tissue freezing. White, insensitive skin , per emergency nursing texts, indicates early frostbite (stage 1), with vasoconstriction and numbness. Pink edema suggests rewarming. Red skin or black tips reflect later stages (thawing or necrosis). Initial assessment notes pallor and sensory loss, guiding rewarming care, making this the correct finding.
