MULTIPLE CHOICE

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




action by the nurse bestdemonstrates this concept?
v v v v v v v




a. Assesses for cultural influences affecting health care
v v v v v v




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




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




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




ANS: A v




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




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




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




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




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




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




directly related to demonstrating client-centered care.

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




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




by the nurse is best?
v v v v v




a. Call the Rapid Response Team.
v v v v




b. Document and continue to monitor. v v v v




c. Notify the primary care provider. v v v v




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




ANS: A v




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




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




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




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

v v v




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




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




clients blood pressure should be reassessed frequently, but the priority is getting
v v v v v v v v v v v v




v the rapid care to the client.

3. A nurse is orienting a new client and family to the inpatient unit. What information
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




does the nurse provide to help the client promote his or her own safety?
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




a. Encourage the client and family to be active partners.
v v v v v v v v




b. Have the client monitor hand hygiene in caregivers.
v v v v v v v




c. Offer the family the opportunity to stay with the client.
v v v v v v v v v




d. Tell the client to always wear his or her armband.
v v v v v v v v v




ANS: A v




Each action could be important for the client or family to perform. However,
v v v v v v v v v v v v




encouraging the client to be active in his or her health care as a partner is the most
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




critical. The other actions are very limited in scope and do not provide the broad
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




protection that being active and involved does.

4. A client is going to be admitted for a scheduled surgical procedure. Which action
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




does the nurse explain is the most important thing the client can do to protect against
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




v errors?
a. Bring a list of all medications and what they are for.
v v v v v v v v v v




b. Keep the doctors phone number by the telephone.
v v v v v v v




c. Make sure all providers wash hands before entering the room.
v v v v v v v v v




d. Write down the name of each caregiver who comes in the room.
v v v v v v v v v v v




ANS: A v




Medication errors are the most common type of health care mistake. The Joint
v v v v v v v v v v v v




Commissions Speak Up campaign encourages clients to help ensure their safety. One
v v v v v v v v v v v v




recommendation is for clients to know all their medications and why they take them.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




This will help prevent medication errors.

5. A new nurse is working with a preceptor on an inpatient medical-surgical unit. The
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




preceptor advises the student that which is the priority when working as a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




professional nurse?
v v




a. Attending to holistic client needs v v v v




b. Ensuring client safety v v




c. Not making medication errors
v v v




d. Providing client-focused care v v




ANS: B v




All actions are appropriate for the professional nurse. However, ensuring client
v v v v v v v v v v




v safety is the priority. Up to98,000 deaths result each year from errors in hospital care,
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




according to the 2000 Institute of Medicine report. Many more clients have suffered
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




injuries and less serious outcomes. Every nurse has the responsibility to guard the
