HESI PN MENTAL HEALTH EXAM QUESTIONS AND COMPLETE WELL EXPLAINED ANSWERS WITH RATIONALE 100% CORRECT AND VERIFIED BY EXPERTS GRADED A+ LATEST UPDATE 2024 (SUCCESS GUARANTEED]ALL YOU NEED TO PASS YOUR EXAMS A nurse should reassess an older adult client's needs and current plan of care when the client's behavior indicates the development of what symptom? 1. Confusion 2. Hypochondriasis 3. Additional complaints 4. Increased socialization 1. Confusion The development of confusion indicates that the client's ability to maintain equilibrium has not been achieved and that further disequilibrium is occurring. Hypochondriasis and additional complaints do not indicate that the plan needs to be changed unless the client's history demonstrates no prior use of these defenses. Increased socialization is a positive response to the plan of care that does not require reassessment. An injured child is brought to the emergency department by the parents. While interviewing the parents, the nurse begins to suspect child abuse. Which parental behaviors might support this conclusion? Select all that apply. 1. Demonstrating concern for the injured child 2. Focusing on the child's role in sustaining the injury 3. Changing the story of how the child sustained the injury 4. Asking questions about the injury and the child's prognosis 5. Giving an explanation of how the injury occurred that is not consistent with the injury 2. Focusing on the child's role in sustaining the injury 3. Changing the story of how the child sustained the injury 5. Giving an explanation of how the injury occurred that is not consistent with the injury The child is often made the scapegoat in the situation; the parents blame the child because they have unrealistic expectations of the child. Discrepancies or inconsistencies in the history result from attempts to present a story that is not based in fact. Discrepancies between the parental explanation for the child's injuries and the physical findings or discrepancies in the history that each parent gives are common because the information that is being provided is not based in fact. Abusive parents usually do not ask questions about the injury or prognosis and demonstrate little or no interest in their child's well -being. A married male client with three children has lost his job and states that he feels useless. He is tearful, upset, and embarrassed. What is an appropriate objective of care for this client? 1. Limiting tearfulness 2. Increasing self -esteem 3. Controlling feelings of sadness 4. Promoting acceptance by others 2. Increasing self -esteem The loss of a job can precipitate negative feelings about the self and decrease self -esteem. Feelings should be expressed, not limited; attempting to decrease a client's crying often ends up worsening it. Crying is not necessarily an expression of sadness; other feelings are involved. The focus should be on the client's self -acceptance, not acceptance by others. A 44 -year -old client has been unable to function since her husband asked for a divorce 2 weeks ago. She is brought to the crisis intervention center by a friend. What type of crisis is this situation? 1. Social 2. Situational 3. Maturational 4. Developmental 2. Situational Situational crises involve an unanticipated loss, such as a divorce, that is threatening to the client. Social crises involve multiple losses such as those occurring during major disasters. Maturational crises occur in response to stress experienced as one struggles with developmental tasks. Developmental (maturational) crises are associated with developmental tasks; divorce is not a developmental task. A resident in a nursing home recently immigrated to the United States from Italy. How does the nurse plan to provide emotional support? 1. By offering choices consistent with the client's heritage 2. By ensuring that the client understands American beliefs 3. By assisting the client in adjusting to the American culture 4. By correcting the client's misconceptions about appropriate health practices 1. By offering choices consistent with the client's heritage Adherence to a plan of care is enhanced by the nurse's providing choices consistent with the client's cultural beliefs and practices. The nurse's cultural or personal beliefs and biases should not influence or interfere with the implementation of appropria te care. Helping the client adjust to the American culture is not the priority at this time; care should be adapted to the client's needs and culture. The
