Question 3 of 5

A) comes after students are aware of the value of healthy eating. Providing resources (
C) and determining motivation (
D) are important but secondary steps once the foundation of understanding is in place. Investigating health and environmental issues (

Question 4 of 5
a first response team isworking at the location of a bombing incident. a nurse triaging a group of clients should give treatment priority to which of the following clients.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because the client exhibiting manic behavior poses a safety risk to themselves and others. The nurse should prioritize stabilizing this client to prevent harm.
Choice A has minor injuries, B has a stable pulse, and D has severe physical symptoms but not an immediate safety concern. Prioritizing the manic client ensures overall safety and prevents escalation of the situation.
Question 5 of 5
a nurse is counseling a client who has a new diagnosis of chlamydia. which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching? (select all that apply)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale:
Correct Answer: D - Once your complete treatment you will have an acquired immunity against chlamydia.
Rationale: Chlamydia is a bacterial infection, not a viral infection. Antibiotics are used to treat chlamydia, not antiviral medications. Completing the antibiotic treatment will clear the infection, but it does not provide immunity against future infections. Acquired immunity typically occurs after exposure to a pathogen, developing antibodies to fight future infections.
Therefore, the nurse should educate the client that completing treatment for chlamydia does not confer immunity. Other choices are incorrect: A - avoiding sexual contact is important to prevent spreading the infection, B - notifying sexual contacts is crucial for their treatment, E - painful urination is a common symptom of chlamydia that may resolve with treatment.
