1. A nurse is teaching a client who has fibromyalgia about strategies that might help reduce her symptoms. What should the nurse include in the client education?

Correct answer: C

Rationale:

2. A nurse is teaching a newly hired group of unlicensed assistive personnel about infection-control measures on the unit. What is the most effective way to prevent the spread of pathogens during client care?

Correct answer: B

Rationale:

3. Which assessment is NOT a nonverbal sing of pain?

Correct answer: D

Rationale:

4. A nurse is caring for a client who has methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in an abdominal wound. The nurse prepares to enter the room to check the client's pulse. What personal protective equipment (PPE) should the nurse don?

Correct answer: C

Rationale:

5. A client has sustained an open fracture. What nursing intervention will best prevent osteomyelitis in this client?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Proper hand hygiene is crucial in preventing infections such as osteomyelitis in clients with open fractures. Keeping the hands clean helps reduce the risk of introducing harmful pathogens to the wound site. Delegating all client personal care to specific unlicensed assistive personnel (Choice A) is not appropriate as direct involvement in wound care is essential in preventing infections. Placing the client in contact precautions (Choice B) is not directly related to preventing osteomyelitis in this context. Administering pain medication (Choice D) is important for managing the client's pain but does not directly address the prevention of osteomyelitis.
