1. A well-rounded fitness program focuses on flexibility, resistance training and aerobic conditioning. What statements are true about a well-rounded fitness program? (Select all that apply)

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Resistance training, proper stretching, and exercise duration/intensity contribute to a well-rounded fitness program.

2. A nurse is providing teaching to an older client who has osteoarthritis that is affecting the knees. What statement by the client indicates a correct understanding of the teaching?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:

3. What complication of wound healing is an abnormal passage that connects two body cavities or a cavity and the skin?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:

4. What observation by the nurse indicates the need for further teaching to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) on assisting with ambulation?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C is the correct answer because the UAP should walk slightly behind or to the side of the client, not in front, to provide proper support during ambulation. Choices A, B, and D are not indicative of incorrect technique or the need for further teaching. Putting shoes on the client, removing floor rugs and loose objects, and using a transfer (gait) belt are all appropriate actions when assisting with ambulation.

5. What is the priority nursing diagnosis for a client with metastatic bone disease?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Risk for falls.' In clients with metastatic bone disease, weakened bones can lead to an increased risk of falls, making it a priority nursing diagnosis. Chronic pain (choice A) may be present but addressing the risk for falls is more critical in this situation. While impaired mobility (choice B) can be a consequence of metastatic bone disease, preventing falls takes precedence. Risk for infection (choice D) is not the priority in this case, as falls pose a more immediate threat to the client's safety.
