1. A nurse is caring for an immobile client. What is the priority assessment in this client?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:

2. A client with a bone cancer states that he is in too much pain to walk today. What should the nurse do first?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Assessing the pain characteristics helps in managing the client’s pain effectively.

3. The nurse is caring for 4 clients. What client should the nurse see first?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is the client on Methotrexate with a fever. Fever in a client on Methotrexate, an immunosuppressant, could indicate a serious infection or adverse drug reaction requiring immediate attention to prevent complications. The other choices do not present immediate life-threatening concerns. A client with lupus asking for dinner can wait, a client with chronic rheumatic pain may need pain management but is not the priority over a fever in a client on Methotrexate, and a client with children visiting does not pose an urgent medical issue.

4. The nurse is caring for 4 clients. Which of these clients will the nurse see first?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:

5. A client just received a diagnosis of cancer. Which statement by the nurse demonstrates empathy?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:
