MODULE 6 HESI SAFETY AND INFECTION CONTROL EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
MODULE 6 HESI SAFETY AND INFECTION CONTROL EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS After discussing the use of restraints with a client and family, a physician has written a prescription for wrist restraints to be applied to a client. The nurse instructs the nursing assistant to apply the restraints. Which of the following observations by the nurse indicates that the nursing assistant is using the restraints safely and correctly? Select all that apply. - answer B The restraints are being released every 2 hours. C A safety knot has been used to secure the restraints. E The call light has been placed within reach of the client. Rationale: Restraints should never be applied tightly, because this could impair circulation. They should be tied to the bed frame (not the siderail) with the use of a safety knot. The client could sustain injury if the siderail were lowered with a restraint attached to it. A safety knot is used because it can easily be released in an emergency. Restraints must be released every 2 hours to facilitate inspection of the skin, help ensure good circulation, and permit movement of the joint through its range of motion. The call light must always be within reach of the client in case he or she needs assistance. A triage nurse in an emergency department (ED) is attending to the victims of a train crash. All victims are alert. Which of these clients does the nurse assign to the emergent category? Select all that apply. - answer A A victim with respiratory distress C A victim with partial amputation of the foot
