NRSG 3420: JUDGEMENT & PRIORITY EXAM QUESTIONS AND

ANSWERS WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS VERIFIED

What is the best rationale for health care providers receiving the influenza

vaccination on a yearly basis?



A. To prevent the emergence of drug-resistant strains of the influenza virus

B. To eventually eradicate the influenza virus in the United States

C. To decrease nurses' susceptibility to healthcare-associated infections

D. To decrease risk of transmission to vulnerable clients

Correct response:

D. To decrease risk of transmission to vulnerable clients



Explanation:

To reduce the chance of transmission to vulnerable clients, health care workers are

advised to obtain influenza vaccinations. The vaccine will not decrease nurses' risks of

developing health care-associated infections, eradicate the influenza virus, or decrease

the risk of developing new strains of the influenza virus.

The nurse is preparing a client for surgery. The client states that she is very

nervous and really does not understand what the surgical procedure is for or how

it will be performed. What is the most appropriate nursing action for the nurse to

take?



A. Have the client sign the informed consent and place it in the chart.

B. Provide the client with a pamphlet explaining the procedure.

C. Call the physician to review the procedure with the client.

D. Explain the procedure clearly to the client and her family.
