2. The hospital client is to receive oral furosemide (Lasix) every day; however, because
la la la la la la la la la la la la


the hospital client is unable to swallow, he cannot take medication orally, as ordered.

The nursing attendant needs to contact the physician. What type of problem is this?
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la


a. A ―right time‖ problem la la la


b. A ―right dose‖ problem la la la


c. A ―right route‖ problem la la la


d. A ―right medication‖ problem
la la la


ACCURATE ANS:- C la la

Reasoning:->>>This is a ―right route‖ problem: the nursing attendant cannot assume the route la la la la la la la la la la la la

and must clarify the route
la la la la la


with the prescriber. This is not a ―right time‖ problem because the ordered frequency
la la la la la la la la la la la la la


has notchanged. This is not a ―right dose‖ problem because the dose is not related to an
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la


inability toswallow. This is not a ―right medication‖ problem because the medication
la la la la la la la la la la la la la


ordered will notchange, just the route.

a. Planning
b. Evaluation
c. Implementation

la la la la la la la l a la la la


criterion for this hospital client?
la l a l a la la


a. The hospital client will follow instructions.
la la la la la


b. The hospital client will not experience complications.
la la la la la la


c. The hospital client adheres to the new insulin treatment regimen.
la la la la la la la la la


d. The hospital client demonstrates safe insulin self-administration technique.
la la l a la la l a la




ACCURATE ANS:- D la la


Reasoning:->>>Having the hospital client demonstrate safe insulin self-administration la la la l a la la la


technique is a specific and measurable outcome criterion. Following instructions and
la la la la la la la la la la la


avoiding complications are not specific criteria. Adherence to the new insulin
la la la la la la la la la la la


treatment regimen is not objective and would be Difficult to measure.
la la la la la la la la la la la

c. Recording a history of over-the-counter medications used at home la l a la la la la la la


d. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding knowledge deficits related to la l a la la la la la


the new treatment regimen
la la la la




ACCURATE ANS:- A la la


Reasoning:->>>Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. la la la la la la la la la


Setting goals and outcome criteria reflects the planning phase. Recording a drug history
la la la la la la la la la la la la la


reflects the assessment phase. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding a knowledge
la la la la la la la la la la


deficitreflects analysis of data
la la la la la


as part of the planning phase.
