Question 1 of 5
The charge nurse is notified that the unit will be receiving an admission of a client from another bed in the hospital in order to make room for others being admitted through the emergency room. The unit is the Women's Health Center of the hospital. Which of the following patients would be most appropriate to be transferred to this unit?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: A 26-year-old woman who had a bowel resection. This choice is appropriate for the Women's Health Center as it aligns with the specialization of the unit in women's health. The patient's condition is surgical in nature, which can be managed effectively in a women's health unit that likely has the necessary resources and expertise to care for post-surgical patients.
Choice B: A 40-year-old man who underwent a hernia repair, is incorrect because it is not aligned with the specialization of the Women's Health Center.
Choice C: A 31-year-old woman with septicemia and on a ventilator, is incorrect because this patient requires intensive care and support beyond what a women's health unit can provide.
Choice D: A 91-year-old man with Alzheimer's disease recovering from a fall, is incorrect because this patient's needs are more aligned with geriatric care rather than women's health.
