Extract:
Question 1 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 2 of 5
A nurse is wearing sterile gloves in preparation for assisting with a client's sterile procedure. While waiting for the procedure to begin, how should the nurse position her hands?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Interlocking fingers above the waist keeps hands sterile and away from contaminants. Other positions risk touching non-sterile areas.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who has a closed chest tube drainage system. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Keeping the system below chest level ensures proper drainage. Looping risks fluid buildup, clamping risks pneumothorax, and milking can harm lung tissue.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing discharge teaching with a client who speaks a different language than the nurse. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A medical interpreter ensures accurate translation, critical for discharge instructions. Partners may miss details, another nurse may not be available, and gestures lack precision.
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: B
Rationale: Measuring intake/output is a routine task suitable for an AP. Checking IV sites, teaching, and pain assessment require nursing judgment.
