Multiple choice


1. A client reports to the emergency department with ankle pain due to a
minor road accident. By asking the client to describe the accident, which
type of nursing skill is the nurse using?
A. Assessment skills
B. Comforting skills
C. Counseling skills
D. Caring skills


Answer. A
Rationale. By asking the client to describe the accident, the nurse is
using assessment skills to collect more information about the client's
condition. The nurse is interviewing the client to collect related data.
The nurse is not using comforting skills, as the nurse is not providing any
emotional support. The counseling skills of the nurse are also not used,
as no health education is provided. Caring skills include assistance
provided with the activities of daily living, which is not applicable in this
scenario.
Question format: multiple choice chapter 1: nursing foundations
cognitive level: understand
Client needs: safe, effective care environment: management of care
integrated process: nursing process
Reference: p. 15

2. One of the nursing achievements in the crimean war was that the
death rate of soldiers dropped from 60% to 1%. What is the most
appropriate reason for the fall in the death rate?
