Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client about informed consent. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The nurse’s signature on a consent form confirms they witnessed the client’s voluntary and competent signature. Disclosing outcomes is the provider’s role, consent enables interventions but isn’t the focus, and verbal consent is limited to minor procedures.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse manager is developing a protocol to reduce the incidence of UTIs in clients who have an indwelling urinary catheter. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the protocol?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Maintaining a closed system prevents pathogen entry, reducing UTI risk. Antiseptics may irritate, routine irrigation increases infection risk, and a 4-day limit isn’t evidence-based.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about the role of nurses during a facility disaster. Which of the following statements by the newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Recommending stable clients for discharge frees resources, showing understanding. Media communication is for designated staff, prescribing is for providers, and performance improvement isn’t a disaster priority.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is orienting a newly licensed nurse about the use of restraints. Which of the following statements by the newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Tying restraints to the movable bed frame prevents injury from tightening. Square knots are unsafe, ‘as needed’ prescriptions are invalid, and restraints should be removed every 2 hours.
Question 5 of 5
A charge nurse is observing a newly licensed nurse change a client's wound dressing. Which of the following actions by the newly licensed nurse demonstrates an understanding of safe handling techniques?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Discarding clean gloves after removing the old dressing minimizes the risk of cross-contamination before handling sterile supplies. Placing soiled dressings on a table risks environmental contamination, cleaning from outside to center introduces contaminants into the wound, and opening sterile supplies before removing the old dressing risks contamination of the sterile field.
