Nursing Elites

1. Nurse Junko and _______ will review the patient’s chart.

• A. She
• B. Them
• C. Me
• D. Him

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: She.' In this sentence, 'She' is the correct pronoun to use as the subject since it refers to Nurse Junko, who is one of the individuals performing the action. 'Them' (choice B), 'Me' (choice C), and 'Him' (choice D) are incorrect as they do not match the subject of the sentence, which is Nurse Junko.

2. When a body part has atrophied, it has ____?

• A. Enlarged
• B. Withered
• C. Swollen
• D. Damaged

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Withered.' When a body part atrophies, it shrinks or wastes away. This term is associated with a decrease in muscle mass or tissue due to various reasons like lack of use or injury. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because atrophy does not refer to enlargement, swelling, or damage, but rather to wasting away or shrinking.

3. Which of the following sentences uses the correct form of the verb?

• A. She was going to the store
• B. She was going to the store
• C. She has gone to the store
• D. She gone to the store

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'She was going to the store.' This sentence uses the correct form of the past continuous tense, which is appropriate for describing an action in progress in the past. Choice A is the only option that uses the correct verb form. Choice C uses the present perfect tense, which is not suitable for describing a past action in progress. Choice D is incorrect as it lacks the auxiliary verb 'has' in the sentence structure.

4. Which word in the sentence needs to be corrected for proper grammar?

• A. About it
• B. A
• C. With
• D. Made

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'A' should be corrected to 'an' in the sentence. The sentence should read, 'The nurse made an error with the medication, so the doctor made notes about it in the patient's file.' The article 'an' is used before a noun beginning with a vowel sound, like 'error' in this case. Choices A, C, and D are grammatically correct in the sentence and do not need to be altered.

5. LABILE also means .

• A. Extremely changing
• B. Suicidal
• C. Rapidly changing
• D. With a high fever

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'labile' is used to describe something that is constantly changing or easily altered. Therefore, the best synonym for 'labile' is 'extremely changing.' Choice B, 'suicidal,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the meaning of 'labile.' Choice C, 'rapidly changing,' is close but not as precise as 'extremely changing.' Choice D, 'with a high fever,' is completely unrelated to the meaning of 'labile.'
