UNIT I: ESSENTIAL THEORETICAL CONCEPTS FOR PRACTICE
CHAPTER 01: SCIENCE AND THE THERAPEUTIC USE OF SELF IN PSYCHIATRIC- MENTAL
HEALTH NURSING
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. WHICH OUTCOME, FOCUSED ON RECOVERY, WOULD BE EXPECTED IN THE PLAN OF CARE FOR A
PATIENT LIVING IN THE COMMUNITY AND DIAGNOSED WITH SERIOUS AND PERSISTENT MENTAL
ILLNESS? WITHIN 3 MONTHS, THE PATIENT WILL: A. DENY SUICIDAL IDEATION.

B. REPORT A SENSE OF WELL-BEING.

C. TAKE MEDICATIONS AS PRESCRIBED.

D. ATTEND CLINIC APPOINTMENTS ON TIME.

CORRECT ANS:B
RECOVERY EMPHASIZES MANAGING SYMPTOMS, REDUCING PSYCHOSOCIAL DISABILITY, AND
IMPROVING ROLE PERFORMANCE.

THE GOAL OF RECOVERY IS TO EMPOWER THE INDIVIDUAL WITH MENTAL ILLNESS TO ACHIEVE A SENSE
OF MEANING AND SATISFACTION IN LIFE AND TO FUNCTION AT THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE LEVEL OF
WELLNESS. THE INCORRECT OPTIONS FOCUS ON THE CLASSIC MEDICAL MODEL RATHER THAN
RECOVERY.

DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: APPLICATION (APPLYING) REF: 2 TOP: NURSING PROCESS: OUTCOMES
IDENTIFICATION MSC: NCLEX: HEALTH PROMOTION AND MAINTENANCE

2. IN THE SHIFT-CHANGE REPORT, AN OFF-GOING NURSE CRITICIZES A PATIENT WHO WEARS
HEAVY MAKEUP. WHICH COMMENT BY THE NURSE WHO RECEIVES THE REPORT BEST DEMONSTRATES
ADVOCACY?

A. THIS IS A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL. CRAZINESS IS WHAT WE ARE ALL ABOUT.

B. LETS ALL SHOW ACCEPTANCE OF THIS PATIENT BY WEARING LOTS OF MAKEUP TOO.

C. YOUR COMMENTS ARE INCONSIDERATE AND INAPPROPRIATE. KEEP THE REPORT OBJECTIVE.

D. OUR PATIENTS NEED OUR HELP TO LEARN BEHAVIORS THAT WILL HELP THEM GET ALONG IN
SOCIETY.

CORRECT ANS:D

, ACCEPTING PATIENTS NEEDS FOR SELF-EXPRESSION AND SEEKING TO TEACH SKILLS THAT WILL
CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR WELL-BEING DEMONSTRATE RESPECT AND ARE IMPORTANT PARTS OF
ADVOCACY. THE ON-



COMING NURSE NEEDS TO TAKE ACTION TO ENSURE THAT OTHERS ARE NOT PREJUDICED AGAINST THE
PATIENT. HUMOR CAN BE APPROPRIATE WITHIN THE PRIVACY OF A SHIFT REPORT BUT NOT AT THE
EXPENSE OF RESPECT FOR PATIENTS. JUDGING THE OFF-GOING NURSE IN A CRITICAL WAY WILL CREATE
CONFLICT.

NURSES MUST SHOW COMPASSION FOR EACH OTHER.

DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: APPLICATION (APPLYING) REF: 8

TOP: NURSING PROCESS: IMPLEMENTATION MSC: NCLEX: SAFE, EFFECTIVE CARE ENVIRONMENT

3. A NURSE ASSESSES A NEWLY ADMITTED PATIENT DIAGNOSED WITH MAJOR DEPRESSIVE
DISORDER. WHICH STATEMENT IS AN EXAMPLE OF ATTENDING?

A. WE ALL HAVE STRESS IN LIFE. BEING IN A PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL ISNT THE END OF THE WORLD.

B. TELL ME WHY YOU FELT YOU HAD TO BE HOSPITALIZED TO RECEIVE TREATMENT FOR YOUR
DEPRESSION.

C. YOU WILL FEEL BETTER AFTER WE GET SOME ANTIDEPRESSANT MEDICATION STARTED FOR
YOU.

D. ID LIKE TO SIT WITH YOU A WHILE SO YOU MAY FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE TALKING WITH ME.

CORRECT ANS:D
ATTENDING IS A TECHNIQUE THAT DEMONSTRATES THE NURSES COMMITMENT TO THE RELATIONSHIP
AND REDUCES FEELINGS OF ISOLATION. THIS TECHNIQUE SHOWS RESPECT FOR THE PATIENT AND
DEMONSTRATES CARING. GENERALIZATIONS, PROBING, AND FALSE REASSURANCES ARE NON-
THERAPEUTIC.

DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: APPLICATION (APPLYING) REF: 8

TOP: NURSING PROCESS: IMPLEMENTATION MSC: NCLEX: PSYCHOSOCIAL INTEGRITY

4. A PATIENT IS HOSPITALIZED FOR DEPRESSION AND SUICIDAL IDEATION AFTER THEIR SPOUSE
ASKS FOR A DIVORCE. SELECT THE NURSES MOST CARING COMMENT.

A. LETS DISCUSS SOME MEANS OF COPING OTHER THAN SUICIDE WHEN YOU HAVE THESE
FEELINGS.

B. I UNDERSTAND WHY YOURE SO DEPRESSED. WHEN I GOT DIVORCED, I WAS DEVASTATED TOO.

C. YOU SHOULD FORGET ABOUT YOUR MARRIAGE AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE.

D. HOW DID YOU GET SO DEPRESSED THAT HOSPITALIZATION WAS NECESSARY?
