MULTIPLE CHOICE ud




1. A newly licensed asks a nursing recruiter for a description of nursing practice in the
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



psychiatric setting. What is the nurse recruiter‘s best response?
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud



a. ―The nurse primarily serves in a supportive role to members of the health care d
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



elivery team.‖ ud



b. ―The multidisciplinary approach eliminates the need to clearly define the r
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



esponsibilities of nursing in such a setting.‖ ud ud ud ud ud ud



c. ―Nursing actions are identified by the institution that distinguishes nursing from
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



other mental health professions.‖ ud ud ud



d. ―Nursing offers unique contributions to the psychotherapeutic management of p
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



sychiatric patients.‖ ud




ANSWER: D ud



Professional role overlap cannot be denied; however, nursing is unique in its focus on and appli
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



cation of psychotherapeutic management. Neither the facility nor the multidisciplinary team def

ine the professional responsibilities of its members but rather utilizes their unique skills to provi
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d ud



de holistic care. Ideally, all team members support each other and have functions within the te

2. Which component of the nursing process will the nurse focus upon to address the r
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



esponsibility to match individual patient needs with appropriate services?
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud



a. Planning
b. Evaluation
c. Assessment
d. Implementation

ANSWER: C ud



Proper assessment is critical for being able to determine the appropriate level of services that w
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



ill provide optimal care while considering patient input and at the lowest cost. Planning and impl
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



ementation utilizes the assessment data to identify and execute actions (treatment plan) that wil
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud udu d ud



l provide appropriate care. Evaluation validates the effectiveness of the treatment plan.

nding of effective psychotherapeutic management of this client?
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud



a. Discussing the disease process of schizophrenia with the client and their domestic

, may be hallucinating ud ud



d. Independently determining that behavior modification is appropriate to decrease t ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



he client‘s paranoid thoughts
ud ud ud




ANSWER: A ud



An understanding of psychopathology is the foundation on which the three components of psycho

therapeutic management rest; it facilitates therapeutic communication and provides abasis for un

ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u

b. Focus of close supervision by the unit staff ud ud ud ud ud ud ud



c. Maintaining effective communication with support system ud ud ud ud ud



d. Frequently scheduled one-on-one time with nursing staff ud ud ud ud ud ud




ANSWER: D ud



A critical element of psychotherapeutic management is the presence of a therapeutic nurs
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d



e-patient relationship. One-on- ud ud



one time with nursing staff will help in establishing this connection. While the other options
ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud ud u d ud ud ud ud ud



are appropriate and client centered, the nurse-client relation is critical in the long-
ud ud ud ud ud ud u d ud ud ud ud ud
