ATI LPN Mental Health Level 4 test II Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is conducting a home health visit for an older adult client who lives with family members. The nurse notices that the client has multiple unusual bruises, and, based on several other factors, the nurse suspects that the client has been physically abused. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Check the bruises at the next visit to the client's home: Delaying action could place the client at further risk of harm. Immediate reporting is necessary. Follow the agency's guidelines for reporting suspected abuse. Nurses are mandatory reporters, and suspected abuse must be reported immediately according to the agency's protocols. This ensures the safety of the client and initiates the appropriate investigation. Institute more frequent visits to the client's home: While increased visits may provide additional monitoring, this is not the priority when abuse is suspected. Arrange referral for family therapy to deal with home stressors: Referring for therapy may be beneficial long-term but is not the first step when abuse is suspected.
