Nursing Elites

1. Which step of the management process is concerned with Policy making and Stating the goals and objective of the institution?

• A. Planning
• B. Organizing
• C. Directing
• D. Controlling

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Effective nursing care involves comprehensive assessments that address all aspects of a patient's condition, ensuring that interventions are appropriately targeted and outcomes are optimized.

2. Can a person with Celiac disease eat Poptarts that contain gluten?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Only in small quantities
• D. Only if they are gluten-free Poptarts

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A person with Celiac disease cannot consume Poptarts that contain gluten because gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, triggering an autoimmune response in individuals with Celiac disease and damaging their small intestine. Even small quantities of gluten can lead to this harmful response, making choices 'A' and 'C' incorrect. While gluten-free Poptarts may be suitable for individuals with Celiac disease, regular Poptarts containing gluten are not safe for consumption by them, rendering choice 'D' incorrect as well.

3. Which nutrient is most important for wound healing in a patient post-surgery?

• A. Vitamin C
• B. Protein
• C. Iron
• D. Calcium

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Protein is essential for tissue repair and wound healing.

4. A nurse is completing an admission assessment on an adolescent client who is a vegetarian. He eats milk products but does not like beans. Which of the following items should the nurse suggest the client order for lunch to provide the nutrients most likely to be lacking in his diet?

• A. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
• B. Baked potato topped with sour cream
• C. Bagel with cream cheese
• D. Fruit salad

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Fruit salad.' Since the adolescent client is a vegetarian who eats milk products but does not like beans, suggesting a fruit salad for lunch would provide essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are commonly found in fruits. Fruit salad can help supplement the nutrients that may be lacking in his diet. Choices A, B, and C do not offer the same variety and quantity of nutrients as a fruit salad, making them less optimal choices for meeting the client's dietary needs.

5. Which of the following nutrients deficiency may lead to a diabetes-like condition?

• A. chromium
• B. iron
• C. molybdenum
• D. selenium

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Chromium is essential for proper glucose metabolism. A deficiency in chromium can result in insulin resistance, which shares similarities with diabetes. Iron, molybdenum, and selenium deficiencies do not directly lead to a diabetes-like condition. Iron deficiency causes anemia, molybdenum deficiency is rare and can lead to specific metabolic issues, and selenium deficiency may result in thyroid problems but not a diabetes-like condition.
