MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The nurse is developing a human needs statement for a patient who has a new diagnosis of
heart failure. Identification of human needs statements occur with which of these activities?
a. Collection of patient data
b. Administering interventions
c. Deciding on patient outcomes
d. Documenting the patient’s behavior
ANS: A

MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
2. The patient is to receive oral guaifenesin (Mucinex) twice a day. Today, the nurse was busy and
gave the medication 2 hours after the scheduled dose was due. What type of problem does this
represent?
a. “Right time”
b. “Right dose”
c. “Right route”
d. “Right medication”
ANS: A
“Right time” is correct because the medication was given more than 30 minutes after the scheduled
dose was due. “Dose” is incorrect because the dose is not related to the time the medication
administration is scheduled. “Route” is incorrect because the route is not affected. “Medication” is
incorrect because the medication ordered will not change.
MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Safety and Infection Control
,3. The nurse has been monitoring the patient’s progress on a new drug regimen since the first
dose and documenting the patient’s therapeutic response to the medication. Which phase of the
nursing process do these actions illustrate?
a. Human needs statement
b. Planning
c. Implementation
d. Evaluation
ANS: D
Monitoring the patient’s progress, including the patient’s response to the medication, is part of the
evaluation phase. Planning, implementation, and human needs statement are not illustrated by this
example.
MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
4. The nurse is assigned to a patient who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Which
statement best illustrates an outcome criterion for this patient?
a. The patient will follow instructions.
b. The patient will not experience complications.
c. The patient will adhere to the new insulin treatment regimen.
d. The patient will demonstrate correct blood glucose testing technique.
ANS: D
“Demonstrating correct blood glucose testing technique” is a specific and measurable outcome
criterion. “Following instructions” and “not experiencing complications” are not specific criteria.
“Adhering to new regimen” would be difficult to measure.
MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
5. Which activity best reflects the implementation phase of the nursing process for the patient
who is newly diagnosed with hypertension?
, a. Providing education on keeping a journal of blood pressure readings
b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the patient’s input
c. Recording a drug history regarding over-the-counter medications used at home
d. Formulating human needs statements regarding insufficient knowledge related to the new
treatment regimen
ANS: A
Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. Setting goals and outcomes
reflects the planning phase. Recording a drug history reflects the assessment phase. Formulating human
needs statements reflects analysis of data as part of planning.
MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
6. The medication order reads, “Give ondansetron (Zofran) 4 mg, 30 minutes before beginning
chemotherapy to prevent nausea.” The nurse notes that the route is missing from the order. What is the
nurse’s best action?
a. Give the medication intravenously because the patient might vomit.
b. Give the medication orally because the tablets are available in 4-mg doses.
c. Contact the prescriber to clarify the route of the medication ordered.
d. Hold the medication until the prescriber returns to make rounds.
ANS: C
A complete medication order includes the route of administration. If a medication order does not
include the route, the nurse must ask the prescriber to clarify it. The intravenous and oral routes are not
interchangeable. Holding the medication until the prescriber returns would mean that the patient would
not receive a needed medication.
