Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing an in-service program about delegation. Which of the following elements should she identify when presenting the 5 rights of delegation?
Correct Answer: B, C, E
Rationale: The correct answer is B, C, and E. The 5 rights of delegation are essential for safe and effective delegation. Right supervision/evaluation ensures appropriate oversight, feedback, and accountability. Right direction/communication emphasizes clear instructions and open communication. Right circumstances consider factors like workload and resources. Right client (choice
A) and right time (choice
D) are not part of the 5 rights of delegation. In summary, choices A and D are incorrect because they do not align with the established principles of delegation, while choices B, C, and E are crucial components for successful delegation.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse manager of a med-surg unit is assigning care responsibilities for the oncoming shift. A client is awaiting transfer back to the unit from the PACU following thoracic surgery. To which staff member should the nurse assign this client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: RN. A registered nurse (RN) is the most appropriate staff member to care for a client awaiting transfer from the PACU following thoracic surgery due to their advanced training and skill set. RNs are qualified to assess, monitor, and manage complex post-operative care needs, including respiratory status, pain management, and hemodynamic stability. Charge nurses may have administrative duties and may not be available to provide direct patient care. LPNs have a more limited scope of practice and may not have the necessary skills to care for a post-thoracic surgery patient. Advanced practice nurses (AP) typically have specialized roles and responsibilities that may not align with providing direct care in this situation.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse observes an AP reprimanding a client for not using the urinal properly. The AP tells him she will put a diaper on him if he does not use the urinal more carefully next time. Which of the following torts is the AP committing?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: "Assault." Assault is the intentional act that creates fear of imminent harmful or offensive contact. In this scenario, the AP's threat of putting a diaper on the client if he does not use the urinal properly next time constitutes assault as it instills fear in the client.
Choice B, Battery, involves actual harmful or offensive contact, which is not present here.
Choice C, False Imprisonment, involves restricting someone's freedom of movement, which is not happening in this scenario.
Choice D, Invasion of Privacy, is not applicable as the situation does not involve a violation of the client's privacy.
Question 4 of 5
An adult client who is competent tells the nurse that he is thinking about leaving the hospital against medical advice. The nurse believes that this is not in the client's best interest, so she administers a PRN sedative med that the client has not requested along w/his usual meds. Which of the following tort has the nurse committed?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: False imprisonment. False imprisonment occurs when a person is unlawfully restrained against their will. In this scenario, the nurse administering a sedative without the client's consent is considered an act of restraint, which restricts the client's freedom to leave. This action constitutes false imprisonment as the client is being detained without proper legal authority.
A: Assault involves the threat of harm or unwanted physical contact, which is not present in this situation.
C: Negligence refers to a failure to provide proper care or fulfill duties, which is not the case here.
D: Breach of confidentiality involves disclosing private information without consent, which is not relevant in this scenario.
In summary, the nurse committed false imprisonment by restricting the client's freedom of movement without legal justification.
Question 5 of 5
A client who will undergo neurosurgery the following week tells the nurse in the surgeon's office that he will prepare his advance directives before he goes to the hospital. Which of the following statements by the client indicates to the nurse that he understands advance directives?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because it demonstrates understanding of advance directives by stating a specific treatment preference, which is not wanting to be kept on a breathing machine. This indicates the client's awareness of the purpose of advance directives in specifying their healthcare wishes.
Choice A is incorrect because it shows a lack of understanding that the client is the one who should make decisions about their care.
Choice B is incorrect as it focuses on the surgery proceeding rather than the purpose of advance directives.
Choice D is incorrect as it does not show an understanding of the purpose of advance directives but rather a general approval process.
