Nursing Elites

1. Another word for SITE is?

• A. Severity
• B. Location
• C. Fortunate
• D. Appearance

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Another word for 'SITE' is 'Location.' In this context, 'site' typically refers to a place or area, making 'Location' the most appropriate synonym among the given choices. Choice A, 'Severity,' does not relate to the meaning of 'site' as a place or area. Choice C, 'Fortunate,' and Choice D, 'Appearance,' are also unrelated to the concept of 'site,' making them incorrect choices.

2. What does 'abrupt' mean?

• A. Gradual
• B. Sudden
• C. Delayed
• D. Relaxed

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Sudden.' Abrupt means something that occurs suddenly, without warning or preparation. It is the opposite of gradual, delayed, or relaxed, which imply a slower or more gentle pace of change or action.

3. What is a diagnostic test?

• A. One that locates a cure
• B. One that looks for a cause
• C. One that examines the skin
• D. One that is performed on doctors

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A diagnostic test is a medical test or procedure performed to identify the cause of a health problem, disease, or condition. It helps healthcare providers make accurate diagnoses and determine appropriate treatments for patients. Choice A is incorrect because a diagnostic test does not locate a cure but rather aims to identify the cause of a health issue. Choice C is incorrect as a diagnostic test is not specifically for examining the skin but can involve various types of tests on different parts of the body. Choice D is incorrect as a diagnostic test is not performed on doctors but on patients to diagnose their health conditions.

4. Someone who is FRUSTRATED/ANNOYED is?

• A. Exacerbated
• B. Transient
• C. Lithe
• D. Terse

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'exacerbated' means to make a problem, bad situation, or negative feeling worse. If someone is frustrated or annoyed, they are likely feeling worse due to a particular situation or circumstance. Choice B, 'transient,' means temporary or short-lived, which does not directly relate to the feeling of being frustrated or annoyed. Choice C, 'lithe,' means thin, supple, and graceful, which is not synonymous with being frustrated or annoyed. Choice D, 'terse,' means brief and to the point, which is unrelated to the context of feeling frustrated or annoyed.

5. He ate four pieces of fried chicken at dinner, and _____ vegetables.

• A. no
