Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching with a client who has severe arthritis and has difficulty with stairs. What should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Maintaining arms in a slightly bent position when using handrails enables the client to use them as support and reduces stress on the arms and shoulders. The other options can lead to imbalance, instability, or strain.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is disinfecting the room of a client who has a Clostridium difficile infection. Which of the following solutions should the nurse use?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Chlorine bleach is effective against Clostridium difficile spores, unlike alcohol, chlorhexidine, or triclosan, which are insufficient for this purpose.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the adult children of a client who is receiving palliative care. Which of the following statements by one of the adult children indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Palliative care includes emotional support for families, which this statement reflects. Resuscitation contradicts palliative goals, and avoiding discussion or spiritual support misunderstands the holistic approach.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is postpartum. Which of the following documentations should the nurse include in the client's health record?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Oral temperature elevated at 0800' is specific and accurate, indicating an abnormal finding that requires monitoring. The other options lack specificity or detail required for proper documentation.
Question 5 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: A
Rationale: Measuring intake and output is a routine task suitable for an AP. Teaching, pain assessment, and IV site checks require nursing judgment and cannot be delegated.
