MULTIPLE CHOICE ni




1. A nurse wishes to provide client-centered care in all interactions. Which
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni action by the nurse best demonstrates this concept?
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



a. Assesses for cultural influences affecting health careni ni ni ni ni ni



b. Ensures that all the clients basic needs are met
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



c. Tells the client and family about all upcoming tests
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



d. Thoroughly orients the client and family to the room ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni




CORRECT ANSWER: A ni ni



Competency in client-focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni communication, culture, respect compassion, client education, and empowerment. By
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



assessing the effect of the clients culture on health care, this nurse is practicing client-
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate this competence.
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni Simply telling the client about all upcoming tests is not providing empowering education.
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



Orienting the client and family to the room is an important safety measure, but not
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni directly related to demonstrating client-centered care.

2. A nurse is caring for a postoperative client on the surgical unit. The clients blood
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni pressure was 142/76 mm Hg 30 minutes ago, and now is 88/50 mm Hg. What action
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni by the nurse is best?
ni ni ni ni



a. Call the Rapid Response Team.
ni ni ni ni



b. Document and continue to monitor. ni ni ni ni



c. Notify the primary care provider.
ni ni ni ni



d. Repeat blood pressure measurement in 15 minutes.
ni ni ni ni ni ni




CORRECT ANSWER: A ni ni



The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients are
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni deteriorating before they suffer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni has manifested a significant change, the nurse should call the RRT. Changes in blood
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni pressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly significant.
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



care provider should be notified, but this is not the priority over calling the RRT.
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni The clients blood pressure should be reassessed frequently, but the priority is
ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni



ni getting the rapid care to the client.
