Using Freudian theory, a nurse can interpret the child’s behavior as a product of impulses originating in the: Selected Answer: Ego Answers: Id Ego Superego Preconsci ous Response Feedback : No. The id operates on the pleasure principle, seeking immediate gratification of impulses. The ego acts as a mediator of behavior and would weigh the consequences of the action, perhaps determining that taking the toy is not worth the parent’s wrath. The superego would oppose the impulsive behavior as “not nice.” The preconscious is a level of awareness. • Question 4 1 out of 1 points Which expected client outcome should a nurse identify as being correctly formulated?

The statement “Client will initiate interaction with one peer during free time within 2 days” is an example of a correctly formulated expected outcome. Outcomes should be measurable, realistic, client-focused goals that include a time frame. Appropriate nursing interventions are guided by client outcomes. • Question 5 A voluntarily hospitalized patient tells the nurse, “Get me the forms for 1 out of 1 points discharge against medical advice so I can leave now.” Which is the nurse’s best response? Selected Answer: “I will get them for you, but let’s talk about your decision to leave treatment.” Answers: “I can’t give you those forms without your health care provider’s knowledge.” “I’ll get the forms for you right now and bring them to your room.” “Since you signed your consent for treatment, you may leave if you desire.” “I will get them for you, but let’s talk about your decision to leave treatment.” Response Feedback : Yes. A patient who has been voluntarily admitted as a psychiatric inpatient has the right to demand and obtain release in most states. However, as a patient advocate, the nurse is responsible for weighing factors related to the patient’s wishes and best interests. By asking for information, the nurse may be able to help the patient reconsider the decision. The statement that discharge forms can’t be given without the health care provider’s knowledge is not true. Facilitating discharge without consent is not in the patient’s best interests before exploring the reason for the request.
