Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assessing the dental status of an 18-month-old child. How many teeth should the nurse expect to examine?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In general, children begin dentition around 6 months of age. During the first 2 years of life, a quick guide to the number of teeth a child should have is as follows: Subtract the number 6 from the number of months in the age of the child. In this example, the child is 18 months old, so the formula is 18 - 6 = 12. An 18-month-old child should have approximately 12 teeth.

Question 4 of 5

A client is having an abortion in a women's clinic and the nurse caring for the client does not think the reasoning is appropriate. The nurse asks, 'Are you sure you want to do this, it can't be undone. Have you read about your other options? Adoption is always a good choice.' The client states she understands all options and is comfortable with her choice. The nurse nods and leaves the room to discuss the procedure with the physician. Which client right did the nurse violate with her actions?

A. the client's right to make personal health decisions without interference, as the nurse tried to sway the client's decision-making and healthcare choice in the direction of not having an abortion B. the client's right to be left alone without unsolicited attention, as the nurse inserted herself in the client's healthcare scenario and offered uninvited advice C. the client's right to confidentiality, as the nurse is talking to the physician about the client and the abortion D. the client's right to respectful care, as the nurse clearly made it known that she did not approve of the abortion

Correct Answer: A
