- Assesses for cultural influences affecting health care
- Ensures that all the clients basic needs are met
- Tells the client and family about all upcoming tests
- Thoroughly orients the client and family to the room
demonstrates this concept?
ANS: A
Competency in client-focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on communication, culture, respect, compassion, client education, and empowerment. By assessing the effect of the clients culture on health care, this nurse is practicing client-focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate this competence.Simply telling the client about all upcoming tests is not providing empowering education. Orienting the client and family to the room is an important safety measure, but not directly related to demonstrating client-centered care.DIF: Understanding/Comprehension REF: 3 KEY: Patient-centered care| culture MSC: Integrated Process: Caring NOT: Client Needs Category: Psychosocial Integrity

- Repeat blood pressure measurement in 15 minutes.
Hg 30 minutes ago, and now is 88/50 mm Hg. What action by the nurse is best?
ANS: A
The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients are deteriorating before they suffer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client has manifested a significant change, the nurse should call the RRT. Changes in blood pressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly significant.Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary care provider should be notified, but this is not the priority over calling the RRT. The clients blood pressure should be reassessed frequently, but the priority is getting the rapid care to the client.DIF: Applying/Application REF: 3

- A nurse is orienting a new client and family to the inpatient unit. What information does the nurse provide to

- Have the client monitor hand hygiene in caregivers.
- Offer the family the opportunity to stay with the client.
- Tell the client to always wear his or her armband.
help the client promote his or her own safety?
ANS: A
Each action could be important for the client or family to perform. However, encouraging the client to be active in his or her health care as a partner is the most critical. The other actions are very limited in scope and do not provide the broad protection that being active and involved does.DIF: Understanding/Comprehension REF: 3
KEY: Patient safety

- Attending to holistic client needs
- Ensuring client safety
- Not making medication errors
- Providing client-focused care
student that which is the priority when working as a professional nurse?
ANS: B
All actions are appropriate for the professional nurse. However, ensuring client safety is the priority. Up to 98,000 deaths result each year from errors in hospital care, according to the 2000 Institute of Medicine report.Many more clients have suffered injuries and less serious outcomes. Every nurse has the responsibility to guard the clients safety.DIF: Understanding/Comprehension REF: 2
KEY: Patient safety
MSC: Integrated Process: Nursing Process: Intervention NOT: Client Needs Category: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Safety and Infection Control
- A client is going to be admitted for a scheduled surgical procedure. Which action does the nurse explain is
- Bring a list of all medications and what they are for.
- Keep the doctors phone number by the telephone.
- Make sure all providers wash hands before entering the room.
- Write down the name of each caregiver who comes in the room.
the most important thing the client can do to protect against errors?
ANS: A
Medication errors are the most common type of health care mistake. The Joint Commissions Speak Up campaign encourages clients to help ensure their safety. One recommendation is for clients to know all their medications and why they take them. This will help prevent medication errors.DIF: Applying/Application REF: 4 KEY: Speak Up campaign| patient safety MSC: Integrated Process: Teaching/Learning NOT: Client Needs Category: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Safety and Infection Control
- Which action by the nurse working with a client best demonstrates respect for autonomy?
- Asks if the client has questions before signing a consent
- Gives the client accurate information when questioned
- Keeps the promises made to the client and family
- Treats the client fairly compared to other clients
ANS: A
Autonomy is self-determination. The client should make decisions regarding care. When the nurse obtains a signature on the consent form, assessing if the client still has questions is vital, because without full information the client cannot practice autonomy. Giving accurate information is practicing with veracity.Keeping promises is upholding fidelity. Treating the client fairly is providing social justice.DIF: Applying/Application REF: 4 KEY: Autonomy| ethical principles MSC: Integrated Process: Caring NOT: Client Needs Category: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
