Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is confused and uncooperative. The client hit the nurse when they attempted to give them their medication. The nurse asks the charge nurse if she can apply restraints on the client. The charge nurse should explain to the nurse this action is a violation of the client’s rights and is an example of which tort?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Applying restraints without justification constitutes false imprisonment violating client rights. Defamation (
A) invasion of privacy (
B) and slander (
C) are unrelated to unauthorized restraint use.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is preparing an educational program about client confidentiality. The nurse should explain that nurses may share a client's protected health information with which individuals?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Health care team members involved in the client’s care can access protected health information under HIPAA to ensure safe treatment. Sharing with family, administrators, or clergy requires client consent or a specific need, which is not automatic.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is demonstrating to a client how to perform diaphragmatic breathing. The nurse should educate the client to complete which action?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Tightening abdominal muscles during exhalation pushes the diaphragm up, enhancing air expulsion in diaphragmatic breathing. Shoulder raising leads to shallow breathing, mouth inhalation is less effective, and nose exhalation is not standard.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is preparing to perform hand hygiene. Which action should the nurse take for hand hygiene to be effective?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Rubbing soap on hands for at least 20 seconds ensures thorough cleaning of all hand surfaces, as recommended by the CDC. Drying is important but secondary, holding hands higher is for surgical antisepsis, and hot water is unnecessary as warm or cold water is effective.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 2 g/day PO divided into two doses. The amount available is amoxicillin 500 mg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer with each dose?
Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: Calculate: 2 g = 2000 mg/day ÷ 2 doses = 1000 mg/dose. 1000 mg ÷ 500 mg/tablet = 2 tablets per dose.
