Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a group of parents about adolescent suicide. Which of the following findings poses the highest risk of suicide completion in adolescents?

A. Parental substance use disorder B. Bipolar disorder C. Loss of family income D. Parental divorce

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Bipolar disorder heightens suicide risk due to mood swings and impulsivity. Other factors contribute but aren't as directly linked.

Question 2 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with an adolescent client who has a new diagnosis of lactose intolerance. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

A. You should eat flavored yogurt instead of plain yogurt. B. You should limit your intake of calcium-fortified orange juice. C. You should drink rice milk instead of cow's milk. D. You should gradually increase lactose products in your diet.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Rice milk is lactose-free, suitable for lactose intolerance. Yogurt flavor doesn't reduce lactose, juice is a good calcium source, and increasing lactose causes symptoms.

Question 3 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a group of parents about immunizations. Which of the following statements by a parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. My child needs to be given her DTaP and polio immunizations at separate visits. B. My child will receive her first dose of rotavirus immunization at 6 months of age. C. My child needs to receive the HPV immunization before she starts school. D. My child will receive the varicella immunization after 12 months of age.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Varicella is given at 12-15 months, correct per schedule. DTaP and polio can be combined, rotavirus starts at 2 months, and HPV is for 11-12 years.

Question 4 of 5

A nurse in an urgent care clinic is contributing to the plan of care for a group of clients. The nurse should identify that which of the following clients will require parental consent prior to receiving treatment?

A. A 15-year-old client who requests testing for an STI B. A 13-year-old client who requests contraception advice C. A 14-year-old client who requires a biopsy of a mole D. A 16-year-old client who requires prenatal care for pregnancy

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A biopsy typically requires parental consent for a 14-year-old, unlike STI testing, contraception, or prenatal care, which minors can often access independently.

A nurse is planning care for a 24-month-old child. Which of the following developmental characteristics should the nurse consider when planning care for the child?

A. Asks many questions B. Shares toys with others C. Has an imaginary playmate D. Demonstrates parallel play

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Parallel play is typical at 24 months, where toddlers play beside but not with others. Questioning, sharing, and imaginary friends develop later.
