1. A client reports to the emergency department with ankle pain due to a minor road accident.
By asking the client to describe the accident, which type of nursing skill is the nurse using?
A. assessment skills
B. comforting skills
C. counseling skills
D. caring skills
Answer: A
Rationale: By asking the client to describe the accident, the nurse is using assessment skills to
collect more information about the client's condition. The nurse is interviewing the client to
collect related data. The nurse is not using comforting skills, as the nurse is not providing any
emotional support. The counseling skills of the nurse are also not used, as no health education
is provided. Caring skills include assistance provided with the activities of daily living, which
is not applicable in this scenario.
Question format: Multiple Choice

2. One of the nursing achievements in the Crimean War was that the death rate of soldiers
dropped from 60% to 1%. What is the most appropriate reason for the fall in the death rate?
A. increased motivation among the soldiers
B. decreased rate of infection and gangrene
C. increased funds courtesy of donations from families
D. college-based education and training of nurses
Answer: B
Rationale: During the Crimean War, the death rate of British soldiers was 60%, which
dropped to 1% due to the nursing care provided. The nurses improved the ventilation,
nutritional, and sanitary conditions of the soldiers, leading to decreased rates of infection and
gangrene. As a result, the death rate dropped. The families and the soldiers donated funds
after the war, not during the war, through which an organized education and training facility
for nurses was started.
