Chapter 1: Foundations of Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, 9th Edition by Sheila L. Videbeck L. Sheila –Test Bank MULTIPLE CHOICE 1.The nurse is assessing a newly admitted client with cholecystitis. When performing the admission assessment, which statement by the client is an indicator of optimal mental health? A. “I don’t need anyone in my life, I manage well on my own.” B. “I practice yoga regularly since it helps manage any stress I am feeling.” C. “My family has several people with mental health problems.” D. “I had a history of alcohol use disorder and have been sober for 2 months.” Answer: B Rationale: Individual factors influencing mental health include coping or stress management abilities. Interpersonal factors such as intimacy and a balance of separateness and connectedness are both needed for good mental health, and therefore a healthy person would need others for companionship. A family history of mental illness could relate to the biologic makeup of an individual, which may have a negative impact on an individual’s mental health. A recent history of the use of maladaptive coping mechanisms such as alcohol does not indicate that the client is mentally healthy.

Which social/cultural category will the nurse document that may be contributing to the client’s degree of mental illness? Select all that apply. A. The client is unable to find work and does not have enough money for housing. B. The client states that they are discriminated against due to their country of origin. C. The client attributes life’s problems to being without family support. D. The client reports being unable to find anything meaningful within their life. E. The client reports not belonging anywhere and is without family support. Answer: A, B Rationale: Social or cultural categories relate to a lack of resources, poverty, negative view of the world, and discrimination and may result in isolation and violent or criminal behavior. The client that attributes life’s problems to being without family support is not able to find meaning in life. Being without support is interpersonal determinant of mental illness.

A client grieving the recent loss of a spouse, asks, “Am I becoming mentally ill? I feel so sad” Which is the nurse’s best response? A. “You may have a temporary mental illness because you are experiencing so much pain.” B. “You are not mentally ill. This is an expected reaction to the loss you have experienced.” C. “Were you generally dissatisfied with your relationship before your husband’s death?” D. “Try not to worry about that right now. You never know what the future brings.” Answer: B Rationale: Acute grief reactions are expected and therefore not considered mental illness. Downplaying the client’s grief does not appropriately address the client’s concerns. The quality of the relationship does not determine the presence of absence of mental illness.

The nurse is using the DSM-5-TR for a newly admitted client diagnosed with bipolar I disorder. Which information will the nurse obtain to assist with the use of this resource? A. Devise a plan of care for a newly admitted client B. Predict the client’s prognosis of treatment outcomes C. Document the appropriate diagnostic code in the client’s medical record D. Use as a guide for client assessment Answer: D Rationale: The DSM-5-TR provides standard nomenclature, presents defining characteristics, and identifies underlying causes of mental disorders. It does not provide care plans or prognostic outcomes of treatment. The DSM-5-TR does not provide coding for record-keeping or billing purposes.

A client with the inability to work due to relapsing schizophrenia is receiving Social Security Benefits. Which benefit will this provide to the client experiencing serious mental illness? A. The client will be able to maintain some level of independence financially. B. The client will have the option to only obtain inpatient treatment. C. The client will be able to pay all of their bills as well as purchase medication. D. The client will have the ability to obtain psychiatric service regardless of setting. Answer: A Rationale: Federal legislation was passed to provide an income for disabled persons: supplemental security income (SSI) and Social Security disability income (SSDI). This allowed people with severe and persistent mental illness to be more independent financially and to not rely on family for money. This does not prevent the client in acute crisis from a relapse from being admitted to the inpatient setting if they are at risk of harm to self or others. Social security is limited and the client may still have some degree of financial difficulty. The client may be limited to state owned facilities and not be able to seek treatment at a private facility. This does not dictate to the client the level of care offered to the client.

The nurse working in the ED of an urban hospital notifies the manager that there are several clients with mental health disorders still present in the ED that have been there over 48 hours. Which issue related to this phenomenon does the nurse discuss with the manager? A. Temporary detaining orders for clients B. Decision to practice boarding C. The revolving door for clients D. The cost of holding clients in the ED for over 48 hours Answer: B Rationale: The practice of boarding is frustrating to health care personnel in EDs since it may interfere with the acute care and emergencies that are required in that setting. Clients become dissatisfied with care, and their families feel as though clients are not receiving the care needed to move through the crisis and some believe an increase in suicide. Provision of an adequate number of psychiatric inpatient beds could better meet the needs of clients and might even decrease homelessness, incarceration, and violence. The revolving door phenomenon is the increase in short-stay admissions repeatedly. Having to obtain a temporary detaining order improves the transition into inpatient care. Cost is not the immediate issue of the nurse.
