1. The provision of health information in the rural areas nationwide through television and radio programs and video conferencing is referred to as:

• A. Community health program
• B. Telehealth program
• C. Wellness program
• D. Red Cross program

Correct answer: A

2. A nurse is planning a menu for a client with a folic acid deficiency anemia. Which food should the nurse recommend that is high in folate?

• A. 4 slices of roast beef
• B. ½ cup of asparagus
• C. 1 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese
• D. ¼ cup of olives

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: ½ cup of asparagus. Asparagus is high in folate, making it a suitable recommendation for clients with folic acid deficiency anemia. Folate is essential in the production of red blood cells, which is crucial in managing anemia. Choices A, C, and D do not contain as much folate as asparagus and are not the best options for addressing a folic acid deficiency anemia.

3. In cleaning the stoma, the nurse would use which of the following cleaning mediums?

• A. Hydrogen Peroxide, water and mild soap
• B. Providone Iodine, water and mild soap
• C. Alcohol, water and mild soap
• D. Mild soap and water

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Understanding the underlying pathology and therapeutic techniques ensures that nursing care is not only reactive but also preventative, reducing the risk of complications.

4. A nurse is providing teaching to a group of parents of newborns who are planning to formula feed. Which of the following statements by a parent indicates a need for further teaching?

• A. "I will give formula to my baby at room temperature."
• B. "I will ensure my baby's feeds last 10 to 15 minutes."
• C. "I will burp my baby halfway through each feeding."
• D. "I will watch for signs my baby is full and stop the feeding."

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is, "I will ensure my baby's feeds last 10 to 15 minutes." This statement indicates a need for further teaching because it suggests a strict time limit for feedings, which may not be appropriate for a newborn. Newborns should be allowed to feed as long as they want, typically around 20-30 minutes per breast if breastfeeding, or on-demand with formula. Choices A, C, and D demonstrate proper feeding practices such as feeding at room temperature, burping halfway through each feeding, and watching for signs of fullness to stop the feeding, which are all appropriate responses by a parent of a formula-fed newborn.

5. In the recent technological innovations, which of the following describe researches that are made to improve and make human life easier?

• A. Pure research
• B. Basic research
• C. Applied research
• D. Experimental research

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Nursing interventions should be grounded in a deep understanding of the physiological processes involved, ensuring that care provided is both effective and efficient.
