When selecting an NCLEX answer or determining the order of priority what
should you remember or use and what is the exception?
Use the ABC rule: Airway breathing, and circulation. The exception to the rule is
with
actual CPR, use C-A-B for CPR. Also remember safety first and acute before
chronic. If the pt. is not in distress then you assess. If the pt is in distress then
you should do something. If the pt has diaphorisis you should always do
something.
How should you address questions related to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
Address physiological needs first, followed by safety and security needs, love
and belonging needs, self esteem needs and finally self actualization needs.
*When a
physiological need is not addressed in the question, look for the option that
addresses safety.
