Question 1 of 5
Nurse is caring for many clients during mass casualty event. Which client is highest priority?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Client with partial & full-thickness burns to face, neck, chest.

In a mass casualty event, prioritizing clients based on potential for immediate harm is crucial. Clients with crush injuries (choice

D) may need urgent care, but they are not at immediate risk of airway compromise. The client with a 4-inch laceration to the head (choice
B) may require stitches but is not in immediate danger of respiratory distress.
Therefore, the client with burns to critical areas should be the top priority for the nurse to ensure airway patency and prevent further complications.
