orders a blood transfusion. A family member of the client mentions that blood
transfusions are not permitted in their community. What should the nurse do in
order to handle the situation? - ANSWER ✓ The nurse should inform the primary
healthcare provider and not give blood to the client
R: The client or the client's family member has the right to refuse treatment and the
nurse should value their beliefs and traditions. Therefore, the nurse should inform
the primary healthcare provider and not perform the blood transfusion. The nurse
should not wait for a court's order or explain or convince the family member to
change his or her mind. The nurse should not proceed with the treatment because
this may cause severe legal implications.

R: Adult day care centers are ideal for providing continuing care to clients whose
caregivers have to be away from home during the day. Hospice care is a type of
continuing care that provides palliative care to clients within the comfort, dignity,
and independence of their homes. Clients also go to nursing centers to receive
continuing care. Nursing centers provide 24-hour custodial care. They help clients
achieve and maintain their highest level of functioning. The primary objectives of
providing restorative home care are health promotion and education. Clients
recovering from chronic or acute illnesses or disabilities require restorative care.
Continuing care is necessary for clients who are suffering from a terminal disease,
who are disabled, or who were never functionally independent.
A nurse caring for a client from another country asks about the client's healthcare
traditions. Which Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) competency
does the nurse comply with? - ANSWER ✓ Pt centered care
R: A nurse who provides compassionate and coordinated care to clients based on
their preferences, values, and needs is providing patient-centered care. Asking

patient-centered care. Safety involves minimizing the risk of harm to clients and
primary healthcare providers. Informatics involves using information and
technology to communicate, manage knowledge, mitigate errors, and support
decision-making. Teamwork and collaboration involves nursing and
interprofessional teams working together effectively to achieve quality client care.

health beliefs and practices of clients. Which scenario is an example of an
***external variable***? - ANSWER ✓ A client stops taking medications after the
disappearance of symptoms to cut down on medical bills
,R: Socioeconomic factors are external variables often influence the health beliefs
and practices of clients. A client facing economic constraints might stop taking
medications after the disappearance of symptoms in order to cut down on medical
bills. This situation is an example of an external variable. Emotional factors are
internal variables that influence a client's health beliefs and practices. Feeling
apprehensive about injections is an example of an emotional factor. Spiritual
factors are also internal variables that influence clients. A client believing that
organ transplants are sinful is an example of spiritual factors influencing health
beliefs. A client's intellectual background is an internal variable. Relying on the
Internet for education regarding healthcare practices is an example of the influence
of intellectual backgrounds on health beliefs and practices.

Which guideline is useful for reducing disparity when caring for transgender
patients? - ANSWER ✓ Learning about the treatment options for transgender
patients and requirements of follow-up care
R: In order to reduce disparities in the health care delivery to transgender patients,
it is appropriate for the nurse to develop individual treatment plans rather than
assuming all transgender patients are the same. Learning about treatment options
and requirements for follow-up care for transgender patients also helps the nurse
provide the best care possible. It is appropriate for the nurse to learn about the
health care needs of homosexual patients when caring for this population, but
transgender patients are not necessarily homosexual, so this may not apply. The
nurse should not automatically assume the patient wants to be referred to using
pronouns of the gender with which he or she is living or of the sex with which he
or she was born. Gender and sex exist on a spectrum, and the nurse should instead
ask the patient how he or she self-identifies.
, A nurse is educating a client about the tertiary level of prevention. What
information should the nurse provide? Select all that apply. - ANSWER ✓ Tertiary
prevention focuses on preventing complications of illness.
Tertiary prevention helps clients achieve as high a level of functioning as possible.
Tertiary prevention aims at minimizing the effects of long-term disease or
disability.
R: Tertiary prevention is also known as preventive care since it aims at preventing
further disability or reduced functioning in the clients. Even though clients may
have developed limitations due to illness or impairment, tertiary prevention helps
in achieving as high a level of functioning as possible. Tertiary prevention makes
use of interventions that prevent complications and deteriorations in order to
minimize the effects of long-term disease or disability. Tertiary prevention is
applied when the client has a defect or disability that is permanent and irreversible.
Tertiary prevention activities focus on rehabilitative care instead of diagnosis and
treatment.
A nurse uses therapeutic communication techniques in order to achieve desired
client outcomes. Which communication technique is a part of therapeutic
communication? - ANSWER ✓ Providing relevant information to the client
R: Because clients have the right to know about their health status, the nurse
should provide them with all relevant information. This is a therapeutic
communication technique that enables clients to understand what is happening and
what to expect. Asking for explanations, showing sympathy and asking personal
questions of the client are nontherapeutic communication techniques.
A nurse needs to obtain consent for the medical treatment of a child whose parent
is a minor. What appropriate step should the nurse take to obtain consent? -
ANSWER ✓ The nurse should ask the minor to give consent
R: The nurse obtains the consent from the minor whose child needs medical
treatment. In case an unemancipated minor needs to give consent for an abortion,
the nurse should wait for the consent of the court. The nurse should not ask adult
siblings or the legal guardian of the minor to give consent if the minor's child
requires medical treatment.
