ATI PN Fundamentals of Nursing 2020 with NGN Exam 2 Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching about advance directives with a client who has terminal colorectal cancer. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Advance directives allow clients to specify care preferences while competent, as B indicates. Separate consent isn't needed, there's no delay, and preferences can be updated, not fixed.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is assisting with discharge planning for an older adult client who has vision loss. Which of the following instructions about home safety should the nurse include in the plan?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Painting step edges enhances visibility for those with vision loss. High water temperature risks burns, cords across walkways are tripping hazards, and 40-watt bulbs are too dim.
Question 3 of 5
A home health nurse is reinforcing teaching about dietary needs with the son of a client. The son states, 'I don't know what to do because he's not eating.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Asking for more details helps assess the situation, guiding appropriate interventions. Suggesting a tube is premature, 'why' may feel confrontational, and dismissing the issue avoids addressing it.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is angry and states, 'The doctor gave me the wrong information. I was lied to!' Which of the following responses by the nurse is appropriate?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Reflecting the client's feelings shows empathy and encourages discussion. Defending the doctor or questioning the client may dismiss their concerns.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is pulling on his NG tube. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Assessing comfort identifies the cause (e.g., pain, anxiety), guiding next steps. Sedation or restraints are not first actions, and documentation follows assessment.
