1. When asked by new parents what the life expectancy is for their African American newborn,
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



the nurse replies that, ―2015 statistics indicate that your son:
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



a. will have a life expectancy of approximately 65 years.‖
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



b. can realistically expect to live into his late 80s.‖
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



c. has a good chance of celebrating his 75th birthday.‖
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



d. is likely to live into his late 90s.‖
n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: C n ;



The overall life expectancy at birth in the United States in 2015 was 78.8. The disparity
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



between life expectancies for black and white Americans has narrowed significantly
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



between 1999 and 2015, with the death rate for blacks (African Americans) dropping by
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



25% (Office of Minority Health, 2017). Of the options above, C is the only response that fits
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



into those parameters. The other options are not supported by reliable research.

2. A nurse is planning care for a group of super-centenarians in an assisted living facility. The
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



nurse considers which of the following?
n; n; n; n; n; n;



a. Most super-centenarians are functionally independent or require minimal
n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



assistance with activities N

. n; n; n;



b. The majority of super-centenarians have cognitive impairment.
n; n; n; n; n; n;



c. The number of super-centenarians is expected to decrease in coming years as a
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



result of heart disease and stroke.
n; n; n; n; n; n;



d. It is theorized that super-centenarians survived as long as they have due to genetic
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



mutations that made them less susceptible to common diseases.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: A n ;



Research supports that most super-centenarians are functionally and cognitively intact,
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



requiring minimal assistance with ADLs. The number of super-centenarians is expected to
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



increase in coming years as the number of older adults increases. Although centenarians still
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



carry genetic markers within their chromosomes for any number of health problems, for as
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



yet unknown reasons, these are not ―activated‖ until much later, if at all, when compared

with other persons.

,3. One reason why many ―baby boomers‖ have multiple chronic conditions such as heart
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



disease, diabetes, and arthritis is that:
n; n; n; n; n; n;



a. they have less access to medication and other treatment regimens.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



b. there was a lack of importance placed on healthy living as they were growing up.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



c. they did not have access to immunizations against communicable disease when
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



they were children.
n; n; n;

, d. they grew up in an era of rampant poverty and malnutrition.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: B n ;



The baby boomers, individuals born between 1946 and 1964, post-WWII, have better access
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



to medication and treatment regimens than other cohorts. They have had the benefit of the
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



development of immunizations against communicable diseases. They grew up in an era of
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



prosperity post-WWII. However, there was a lack of importance placed on what we now
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



consider healthy living when they were younger. Smoking, for example, was not condoned,
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



but was considered a symbol of status. Candy in the shape of cigarettes was popular, and
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



there was much secondhand smoke.

4. A nurse is planning an education program on wellness in a local senior citizen center. The
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



nurse plans to provide education on the importance of immunizations, annual physical
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



examinations, screening for diabetes, and vision and hearing screening. It is important
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



for the nurse to understand which of the following?
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



a. Less than 50% of older adults (ages 65 and older) utilize available preventive
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



services. n;



b. Preventive strategies are more widely used in the 50-64 age-group than in the 65 n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



and over age-group.
n; n; n;



c. The research on health promotion strategies in older adults demonstrates that they
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



have low efficacy.
n; n; n;



d. There is an abundance of research specific to health promotion and aging.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: A n ;



Less than 50% of individuals, ages 65 and older, utilize the preventive services that are
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



available to them. However, only 25% of those between the ages of 50 and 64 do so. There
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



is a paucity of research specific to health promotion and aging; however, the research that
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



exists demonstrates that health promotion strategies are highly effective.

5. A nurse is caring for an 85-year-old male client with diabetes in a community setting. The
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



nurse promotes functional wellness by which of the following activities?
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



a. Encouraging the client to maintain current levels of physical activity n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



b. Assisting the client to receive all the recommended preventive screenings that are
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



appropriate for his age-group
n; n; n; n;



c. Teaching the patient how to use a rolling walker so that he can ambulate for longer
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



distances n;



d. Encouraging the client to attend his weekly chess games n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




n; ANS: A n ;

, Maintaining existing levels of physical activity is consistent with functional wellness.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



Teaching the client how to use a rolling walker enables the client to remain active at the
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



highest level possible, which is an example of promoting functional wellness. Receiving
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



recommended screening is an example of promoting biological wellness. The use of a
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



rolling walker should be based on assessment of physical ability. Encouraging the client to
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



attend weekly chess games is an example of promoting social wellness.

6. Based on the census reports of 2015, the typical profile of a centenarian includes which of
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



the following characteristics?
n; n; n;



a. An American woman with no signs of dementia
n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



b. A Japanese woman with chronic inflammation
n; n; n; n; n;



c. A Chinese man with an immune disorder
n; n; n; n; n; n;



d. An American man who is a lifelong vegetarian
n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: A n ;



Based on the 2015 U.S. Census data, while the United States has highest number of
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



centenarians, Japan has over double the number relative to the population as a whole. The
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



relatively low number of centenarians (and super-centenarians) with dementia of some
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



kind may be explained by the presence of some type of genetic neuroprotective factors.
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



While most people have normal age-related declines in immune functioning and increases
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



in a state of chronic inflammation, this does not appear to be the case for this group of long
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



lived people.

1. Primary prevention strategies for older adults include which of the following? (Select all
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



that apply.)
n; n;



a. An annual influenza immunization clinic
n; n; n; n;



b. A smoking cessation program
n; n; n;



c. A prostate screening program
n; n; n;



d. A cardiac rehabilitation program
n; n; n;



e. A meal planning education program for type 2 diabetics
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;




ANS: A, B n ; n;



Primary prevention refers to strategies that are used to prevent an illness before it occurs and
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



maintaining wellness across the continuum of care. Immunizations and smoking cessation
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



are examples of primary prevention. Secondary prevention is the early detection of a disease
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



or a health problem that has already developed. Prostate screening is an example of
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



secondary prevention. Tertiary prevention addresses the needs of individuals who already
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



have their wellness challenged. Cardiac rehabilitation and meal planning for diabetics are
n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n; n;



examples of tertiary prevention.
