Question 1 of 5

Rationale: Elevating the bed head uses gravity to reduce acid reflux.
Question 2 of 5
When bathing a patient's extremities, the nurse should use long, firm strokes from the distal to the proximal areas. This technique:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Distal-to-proximal strokes enhance venous return, improving circulation.
Question 3 of 5
This is the best patient care model when there are many nurses but few patients.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Total patient care thrives with many nurses and few patients, allowing one nurse to fully manage each client's needs e.g., dressing changes, meds, and education. This contrasts with functional nursing (task-based), team nursing (group effort), or primary nursing (continuity-focused), offering intensive, individualized attention when staffing is ample, optimizing resource use and patient outcomes.
Question 4 of 5
They put girls clothes on male infants to drive evil forces away
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Ancient Chinese dressed male infants in girls' clothes to confuse demons, believing males attracted evil spirits e.g., during infancy rites. Unlike Egyptian, Indian, or Babylonian customs, this reflects spiritual protection beliefs, offering historical insight into cultural health practices relevant to nursing's cultural competence.
Question 5 of 5
Who is the first Filipino chief nurse of PGH?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Anastacia Giron-Tupas was PGH's first Filipino chief nurse, a trailblazer e.g., elevating local leadership post-American rule. Delgado (PNA president), Sotejo (educator), and Tupas (unrelated) differ. Her tenure marked a shift toward Filipino autonomy in healthcare, influencing nursing's national identity.
