MULTIPLE CHOICE ps




1. Which outcome, focused on recovery, would be expected in the plan of care for a patient
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




living in the community and diagnosed with serious and persistent mental illness? Within 3
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




months, the patient will: ps ps ps




a. deny suicidal ideation. ps ps




b. report a sense of well-being. ps ps ps ps




c. take medications as prescribed.
ps ps ps




d. attend clinic appointments on time. ps ps ps ps




Answer: B ps




Recovery emphasizes managing symptoms, reducing psychosocial disability, and improving role p
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




erformance. The goal of recovery is to empower the individual with mental illness to achieve a se
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




nse of meaning and satisfaction in life and to function at the highest possible level of wellness. T
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




he incorrect options focus on the classic medical model rather than recovery.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




2. A patient is hospitalized for depression and suicidal ideation after their spouse asks for a
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




divorce. Select the nurses most caring comment.
ps ps ps ps ps ps




a. Lets discuss some means of coping other than suicide when you have these feelings.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




b. I understand why youre so depressed. When I got divorced, I was devastated too.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




c. You should forget about your marriage and move on with your life.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




d. How did you get so depressed that hospitalization was necessary?
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




Answer: A ps




The nurses communication should evidence caring and a commitment to work with the patient.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




This commitment lets the patient know the nurse will help. Probing and advice are not helpful o
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




r therapeutic interventions.

3. In the shift-change report, an off-
ps ps ps ps ps




going nurse criticizes a patient who wears heavy makeup. Which comment by the nurse who
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




receives the report best demonstrates advocacy?
ps ps ps ps ps




a. This is a psychiatric hospital. Craziness is what we are all about.
ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps ps




b. Lets all show acceptance of this patient by wearing lots of makeup too.
