Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is coordinating care of a group of clients with an assistive personnel (AP). Which of the following tasks should the nurse assign to the AP?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Measuring intake/output is a routine task suitable for an AP. Checking IV sites, teaching, and pain assessment require nursing judgment.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching about end-of-life care with the partner of a client. Which of the following statements should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Hearing may persist in unresponsive states, so C promotes connection. Opioids adjust, not restrict; large meals may not suit; electric blankets pose risks.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is replacing a dressing for a client who has an abdominal incision with a closed wound drain. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Lifting the dressing with the underside facing the client prevents contamination. Pushing skin, drying with gauze, or horizontal strokes risk trauma or infection.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse observes an assistive personnel (AP) perform mouth care for a client who is unconscious. Which of the following actions by the AP requires intervention by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Using fingers to open the mouth risks injury; a safer method like a tongue depressor is preferred. Other actions enhance safety and hygiene.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has chronic constipation. Which of the following actions should the nurse recommend to the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Probiotics promote gut health, aiding constipation. Daily laxatives risk dependence, white flour lacks fiber, and calcium isn't a primary fix.
