1. What food assistance program provides a food debit card for older adults with low incomes?

• A. the OAA Nutrition Program
• B. Meals on Wheels
• C. the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
• D. the Emergency Food Assistance Program

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). SNAP provides a food debit card to assist low-income individuals, including older adults, in purchasing food. Choice A, the OAA Nutrition Program, is incorrect as it refers to a different program specifically focused on providing nutrition services to older adults. Choice B, Meals on Wheels, is incorrect as it is a meal delivery service for homebound individuals rather than a food debit card program. Choice D, the Emergency Food Assistance Program, is incorrect as it typically involves the distribution of emergency food supplies rather than providing a food debit card.

2. Gina, A client in prolong labor said she cannot go on anymore. The health care team decided that both the child and the mother cannot anymore endure the process. The baby is premature and has a little chance of surviving. Caesarian section is not possible because Gina already lost enough blood during labor and additional losses would tend to be fatal. The husband decided that Gina should survive and gave his consent to terminate the fetus. The principle that will be used by the health care team is:

• A. Beneficence
• B. Non malfeasance
• C. Justice
• D. Double effect

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Effective nursing care involves comprehensive assessments that address all aspects of a patient's condition, ensuring that interventions are appropriately targeted and outcomes are optimized.

3. Each statement is true, except one. Which is the exception?

• A. Infant formulas should be discontinued at approximately 1 year of age
• B. Low-fat milk is not recommended for children younger than 2 years
• C. Special toddler formulas are available but are unnecessary
• D. Vitamin D-fortified whole milk should not be provided until 2 years

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Vitamin D-fortified whole milk should be provided starting at age 1 after discontinuing breast feeding or infant formulas, not at 2 years. Providing whole milk at age 2 is appropriate. Choices A, B, and C are correct statements: infant formulas are typically discontinued around 1 year of age, low-fat milk is not recommended for children under 2 years, and special toddler formulas are unnecessary.

4. Weight loss therapies that rely on juicing typically provide increased fiber, vitamins, and minerals. As an added incentive, juices contain a lower concentration of sugar than the whole fruit. Are these statements true or false?

• A. Both statements are true
• B. Both statements are false
• C. The first statement is true; the second is false
• D. The first statement is false; the second is true

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is both statements are false. The process of juicing often extracts the liquid components of fruits and vegetables, leaving behind the fiber-rich pulp. Therefore, juicing does not typically provide increased fiber. Additionally, juices can contain a higher concentration of sugar than whole fruits because the fiber, which helps to slow down the absorption of sugar, has been removed. This can lead to a spike in blood sugar levels after consumption. The other options are incorrect because they contain at least one false statement.

5. A client was rushed in the E.R showing a whitish, leathery and painless burned area on his skin. The nurse is correct in classifying this burn as:

• A. First degree burn C. Third degree burn
• B. Second degree burn D. Partial thickness burn
• C.
• D.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Nursing interventions should be grounded in a deep understanding of the physiological processes involved, ensuring that care provided is both effective and efficient.
