position. speak.
Correct: D - Assess the patient's ability to cough or speak.


Rationale:The first step is to assess airway patency. If the patient can cough or speak, the
airway is partially obstructed, and interventions like encouraging coughing are appropriate.
Performing the Heimlich maneuver immediately (A) is only indicated for complete obstruction.
Calling for help and suctioning (B) may be premature without assessment. Positioning in
high-Fowler's (C) is not the immediate priority.

Q2.
Which of the following is the most critical principle when transferring a patient from a bed
to a wheelchair using a mechanical lift?


A. Position the lift so that the base is fully B. Ensure the patient's arms are crossed
closed under the bed. over the chest during the transfer.

C. Lock the wheels of the bed and D. Raise the lift sling as high as possible to
wheelchair before the transfer. clear the bed rails.
Correct: C - Lock the wheels of the bed and wheelchair before the transfer.


Rationale:Locking the wheels of the bed and wheelchair is essential to prevent movement
during the transfer, ensuring patient safety. The lift base should be fully open, not closed (A),
for stability. The patient's arms should not be crossed (B) as this may cause injury; they
should be positioned safely inside the sling. The sling should be raised only enough to clear
the surface (D), not as high as possible, to avoid falls.

Correct: C - The urine has a strong odor and appears cloudy.


Rationale:Cloudy, foul-smelling urine may indicate a urinary tract infection, which requires
immediate reporting. Urine output of 40 mL/hour (A) is within normal range. Securing the
catheter (B) and keeping the drainage bag below the bladder (D) are appropriate practices to
prevent infection and backflow.

Q4.
A resident with dementia is agitated and repeatedly asks to go home. Which response is
most appropriate?

home today.
Correct: B - Redirect the resident to a preferred activity.


Rationale:Redirecting the resident to a familiar or preferred activity is a therapeutic
communication technique that addresses the underlying emotion without arguing or causing
distress. Reminding the resident (A) or telling them they can't go home (C) can increase
agitation. Ignoring the behavior (D) may escalate anxiety.

Q5.
Which of the following is the correct order for removing personal protective equipment
(PPE) to prevent self-contamination?


A. Gloves, goggles, gown, mask B. Gown, gloves, mask, goggles

C. Mask, goggles, gown, gloves D. Gloves, gown, mask, goggles
Correct: A - Gloves, goggles, gown, mask


Rationale:The CDC recommends removing gloves first (most contaminated), then goggles,
then gown, and finally mask (least contaminated). This sequence minimizes the risk of
contaminating the face and clothing. The other orders either leave contaminated items on
longer or risk touching the face with contaminated gloves.
