Question 1 of 5
Nurse planning diversionary activities for children on peds unit. Which should nurse incorporate as appropriate play activities for school-age children? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A,B,C
Rationale: The correct answers are A, B, and C. Building models (
A) promotes creativity and fine motor skills. Playing video games (
B) can be engaging and provide entertainment. Reading books (
C) helps with cognitive development and language skills. Using toy carpentry tools (
D) might not be safe for unsupervised play. Shaping modeling clay (E) is a good activity but not listed for school-age children. In summary, A, B, and C are appropriate for school-age children due to their developmental benefits.
Question 2 of 5
Nurse observes assistive personnel (AP) reprimanding a client for not using urinal properly. The AP tells him she will put a diaper on him if he doesn't use urinal more carefully next time. Which of the following torts is AP committing?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assault. The AP's threat to put a diaper on the client if he doesn't use the urinal more carefully next time constitutes assault. Assault is the intentional act that causes another person to fear that they will be physically harmed. In this scenario, the threat of putting a diaper on the client without his consent is a form of intimidation and instills fear in the client.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because battery involves actual physical contact without consent, false imprisonment involves unjustified confinement, and invasion of privacy involves intruding on a person's right to privacy. In this case, the AP's actions align more closely with the definition of assault.
Question 3 of 5
Nurse is caring for a client who presents with linear clusters of fluid-containing vesicles with some crusting. Which should the nurse suspect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Herpes zoster. The presentation of linear clusters of fluid-containing vesicles with crusting is characteristic of herpes zoster, also known as shingles. This condition is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which initially causes chickenpox. The linear distribution of the vesicles along a dermatome is a key distinguishing feature of herpes zoster. Allergic reactions typically present with generalized rash and itching, not linear clusters of vesicles. Ringworm is a fungal infection that presents with circular, scaly lesions, not linear vesicles. Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that can present with a variety of symptoms, but linear clusters of vesicles are not characteristic of this condition.
Question 4 of 5
Nurse is reviewing safety precautions with group of young adults at community health fair. Which recommendations should nurse include specifically for this age group?
Correct Answer: B, C, D
Rationale: The correct recommendations for young adults are wearing a helmet while skiing (
B), installing a carbon monoxide detector (
C), and securing firearms in a safe location (
D). Wearing a helmet while skiing is important for preventing head injuries during recreational activities. Installing a carbon monoxide detector is crucial as young adults may live in shared housing or apartments where carbon monoxide poisoning can occur. Securing firearms in a safe location is essential to prevent accidental injuries or misuse. The other choices are not specific to the safety needs of young adults. Bath rails and grab bars (
A) are more relevant for older adults, while removing throw rugs (E) is a general safety tip for preventing falls that is not age-specific.
Question 5 of 5

Rationale: The correct answers are B, C, and D.
B: Client ambulates with his slippers on over his antiembolic stockings - This information is important for the AP to ensure the client's safety during ambulation.
C: Client uses front-wheeled walker when ambulating - Sharing this information helps the AP provide appropriate assistance and support during ambulation.
D: Client had pain med 30 min ago - This is crucial for the AP to know to monitor for potential side effects and to ensure safe ambulation.

E: Client is allergic to codeine - While important, this information is not directly related to the client's ambulation task.
F: Client ate 50% of his breakfast this morning - While nutrition is important, it is not directly related to the client's ambulation task.
