Generation NCLEX (NGN) and Case Scenario
Expert-Verified Explanations & Solutions
,**1. A home health nurse is caring for a child diagnosed with Lyme disease. Which of
the following is an appropriate action for the nurse to take?**
a. Ensure the state health department has been notified
b. Administer antitoxin
c. Educate the family to avoid sharing personal belongings
d. Assess for skin necrosis
**Answer: a. Ensure the state health department has been notified**
**Expert Rationale:** Lyme disease is a reportable condition in most states due to its
public health implications. Ensuring notification to the state health department facilitates
disease monitoring and control. Administering antitoxin is not appropriate as Lyme
disease treatment involves antibiotics, not antitoxins. Educating about sharing
belongings is unrelated because Lyme disease is transmitted by ticks, not person-to-
person. Skin necrosis is not a typical manifestation of Lyme disease and therefore
assessment for necrosis is not indicated.

**2. A nurse is caring for a client admitted with a respiratory condition. (NGN scenario):
Based on the following interventions, which are appropriate?**
- Provide frequent rest periods
- Restrict client sodium intake
- Advise client to avoid using soap and alcohol-based lotions
- Instruct the client to avoid blowing their nose forcefully
- Assess the client’s level of orientation
,**Answer:** Provide frequent rest periods; Advise client to avoid using soap and alcohol-
based lotions; Instruct client to avoid blowing their nose forcefully; Assess level of
orientation.
**Expert Rationale:** Frequent rest supports oxygen conservation and prevents
exhaustion. Avoiding soap and alcohol-based lotions helps maintain skin integrity,
especially in respiratory illness where fragile skin can be present. Avoiding forceful nose
blowing reduces risk of epistaxis or sinus trauma. Assessment of orientation ensures
early recognition of hypoxia or other complications. Sodium restriction is not routinely
indicated unless the client has comorbidities such as heart failure.

**3. A nurse is caring for a client with a vented nasogastric (NG) tube set to low
intermittent suction who has vomited. Which of the following actions should the nurse
perform first?**
a. Administer an antiemetic medication
b. Evaluate functioning of the suction device
c. Provide oral hygiene care
d. Replace the NG tube
**Answer:`b.`Evaluate`functioning`of`the`suction`device**
**Expert`Rationale:**`Vomiting`may`indicate`obstruction`or`malfunction`of`the`NG`tube`or`
suction`device.`The`priority`is`to`assess`and`correct`mechanical`issues`to`prevent`aspirati
on`and`further`complications.`Administering`antiemetics`may`be`appropriate`after`ensurin
g`mechanical`function.`Oral`hygiene`is`important`but`secondary`to`safety.`Replacing`the`t
ube`is`not`the`first`step`without`further`assessment.

of`a`client’s`continuous`passive`motion`(CPM)`device.`Which`of`the`following`actions`shou
ld`the`nurse`take`first?**
a.`Initiate`a`requisition`for`a`replacement`CPM`device``
b.`Report`the`defect`to`equipment`maintenance`staff``
c.`Remove`the`device`from`the`room``
d.`Ensure`the`device`inspection`sticker`is`current``
**Answer:`c.`Remove`the`device`from`the`room**
**Expert`Rationale:**`A`frayed`electrical`cord`presents`an`immediate`safety`hazard`includi
ng`risk`of`electrical`shock`or`fire.`The`priority`is`to`eliminate`risk`by`removing`the`device`pr

actions`should`the`nurse`take`when`pouring`the`sterile`solution?**
a.`Remove`the`cap`and`place`it`sterile-side`up`on`a`clean`surface``
