B. Adapted to and adopted the American culture.

C. Had an extremely negative experience with the American culture.

A 48-year-old woman complains to her nurse that she is experiencing frequent episodes of insomnia.
What are some measures the nurse should educate her about? (select all that apply)

,A. Insomnia is common for this age group.

B. Engage in activity 1 to 2 hours before bed to encourage sleep.

C. Avoid or reduce the amount of caffeinated beverages that are consumed.

D. Occasional napping should be avoided.

E. Have a regular schedule for waking and sleep. *Ans* A. Insomnia is common for this age group.

C. Avoid or reduce the amount of caffeinated beverages that are consumed.

E. Have a regular schedule for waking and sleep.



Insomnia is a common finding in this age category. This condition may be the result of overstimulation
resulting from drinking too much caffeinated beverages, strenuous exercise within two hours of bedtime,
not having a regular schedule for waking and sleep in a 24-hour period (National Sleep Foundation,
2012). Frequently-occurring insomnia can lead to distractibility and irritability and fatigue during the
daytime hours. Rest is essential to allow restorative functions of the body to occur. The effects of
insomnia can be counteracted by regularly scheduled, high-quality sleep and occasional napping when
fatigued.



A 50-year-old man is initiating an exercise program to help improve his cardiovascular health. What are

Some suggested activities for the middle-aged adult include brisk walking, jogging, swimming, bicycling,
and skipping rope as well as walking or biking to work. Activities that focus on skill and coordination
should be attempted by the adult over age 40 rather than activities necessitating speed and strength.

,Moderation is important for all groups of individuals. Caution is recommended for adults nearing age 65
to prevent muscle strains and/or falls, etc. Overexertion, as evidenced by dizziness, chest pressure or
chest pain, and unresolved shortness of breath should be avoided. Also, in hot weather, strenuous
exercise should be balanced with rest periods and increased intake of fluids to prevent heat stroke.

disease, both for the individual and society, outweigh the temporary discomforts. Which principle is
involved in this situation?



A. Fidelity

B. Beneficence

C. Nonmaleficence

D. Respect for autonomy *Ans* B. Beneficence

autonomy refers to the commitment to include patients in the decision-making process regarding health
care plans.

C. osteopenia.
