To answer an NCLEX question, first carefully read the question stem to identify the key issue or focus (e.g., priority, intervention, or assessment). Use strategies like Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the ABCs (Airway, Breathing, Circulation), and the nursing process (Assess, Diagnose, Plan, Implement, Evaluate) to determine the correct answer. Eliminate incorrect options by identifying distractors or answers that don't align with the question focus. Always prioritize patient safety and critical thinking when deciding. The rationale helps clarify why the chosen answer is correct and why others are wrong, reinforcing the concept and guiding future question strategies.
