ATI RN Fundamentals 2019 with NGN - Exam 2 Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer eye drops to a client. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Pulling the lower eyelid down creates a pocket for the drops, ensuring proper administration. Drops should not be instilled on the cornea, the client should look upward, and the dropper tip should remain sterile without needing alcohol wiping.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse at a long-term care facility is providing change-of-shift report to an oncoming nurse about a client who has shingles. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the report?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Including the type of transmission-based precautions (e.g., contact precautions for shingles) is critical to prevent infection spread. Routine vital sign times, health history, and visitor numbers are less specific to shingles management.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client with a new diagnosis of hypertension. Which of the following dietary recommendations should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Processed foods are high in sodium and should be avoided. Limiting sodium to 2,300 mg/day (or less, per guidelines) helps manage hypertension. Dairy can be included in moderation. High-potassium foods (e.g., bananas) help balance sodium and support blood pressure control.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a group of clients whose primary languages are different from the nurse's. For which of the following clients should the nurse provide written materials in the client's primary language?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Written materials in the client's primary language are essential for discharge teaching to ensure understanding and compliance. A video in the client's language may suffice for meal services. An interpreter can assist with incentive spirometer teaching. Pain medication administration does not typically require written materials.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is providing preoperative teaching to a client over the phone in preparation for outpatient surgery. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Multiple showers are unnecessary. Clients should arrange for an adult to drive them home due to anesthesia effects. Clear liquids should stop 2 hours before surgery. Makeup can interfere with monitoring and should be avoided.
