Question 1 of 5
Regarding maternal and infant mortality and morbidity, a concern is that:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is that a segment of the population is not receiving prenatal care. This is a significant concern as lack of access to prenatal care can lead to adverse outcomes for both the mother and the infant.
Choice B is incorrect as it generalizes families as unconcerned, which may not be the case for all families.
Choice C is also incorrect as there is no evidence or indication in the prompt to suggest an increase in the shortage of personnel.
Choice D is not directly related to the concern mentioned in the prompt, which specifically focuses on the lack of prenatal care.
Question 2 of 5
The greatest time savers when planning client care include all of the following except:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The greatest time-savers when planning client care are activities that facilitate focus and completion of priority items. Time-savers include setting goals, specifying priorities, planning tasks, delegating where appropriate, reassessment, and ongoing evaluation of needs. Reacting to the crisis of the moment is not a time-saving strategy in client care planning; it can lead to inefficiency, lack of focus, and potentially missing important priority items.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'reacting to the crisis of the moment.'
Choices B, C, and D are essential components for effective client care planning as they help in organizing and prioritizing tasks, setting objectives, and ensuring a structured approach to care delivery.
Question 3 of 5
When assessing Mr. Lee's eye condition, what general information should the nurse seek?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: When assessing a patient's eye condition, the nurse should seek general information such as the type of employment, activities, allergies, medications, lenses, and protective devices used. This information helps in understanding potential exposures to irritants and risks related to activities. While the presence of burning or itchy sensation in the eyes, position of the eyelids, and existence of floaters are important aspects to assess during a focused eye examination, during the initial assessment, the type of employment is more relevant for understanding possible environmental factors affecting eye health.
Question 4 of 5
A client states, "I eat a well-balanced diet. I do not smoke. I exercise regularly, and I have a yearly checkup with my physician. What else can I do to help prevent cancer?"? The nurse should respond with which of the following statements?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: All of the choices are methods of preventing cancer. Sleep is important in maintaining homeostasis, which helps the body respond to disease. Monthly breast examination can indicate cancer or fibrocystic disease. Stress can have a physiological response that decreases the immune response and increases the risk of disease.
Therefore, all the options mentioned are important for cancer prevention, making 'All of the above' the correct response.
Question 5 of 5
A wrong committed by one person against another (or against the property of another) that might result in a civil trial is:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A tort is a civil wrong committed by one person against another person (or against the property of another) that might result in civil trials. Unlike crimes, which are considered wrongs against the public, torts are personal wrongs. Misdemeanors are crimes punishable with fines or imprisonment for less than one year, whereas felonies are serious crimes punishable by imprisonment for more than one year in a State or Federal penitentiary.
Therefore, the correct answer is a tort as it aligns with the definition of a civil wrong that leads to potential civil trials, distinguishing it from crimes, misdemeanors, and felonies.
