1. Which outcome, focused on recovery, would be expected in the plan of care for a
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


patient living in the community and diagnosed with serious and persistent mental
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


illness? Within 3 months, the patient will: a. deny suicidal ideation.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




b. report a sense of well-being. nx nx nx nx




c. take medications as prescribed.

d. attend clinic appointments on nx nx nx




time. ANSWER: B

Recovery emphasizes managing symptoms, reducing psychosocial disability, and
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


improving role performance.
nx nx nx




The goal of recovery is to empower the individual with mental illness to achieve a
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


sense of meaning and satisfaction in life and to function at the highest possible level
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


of wellness. The incorrect options focus on the classic medical model rather than
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


recovery.

2. In the shift-change report, an off-going nurse criticizes a patient who wears
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


heavy makeup. Which comment by the nurse who receives the report best
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


demonstrates advocacy?
nx nx




a. This is a psychiatric hospital. Craziness is what we are all about.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




b. Lets all show acceptance of this patient by wearing lots of makeup too.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




c. Your comments are inconsiderate and inappropriate. Keep the report objective.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




d. Our patients need our help to learn behaviors that will help them get along in
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




society. ANSWER: D
nx nx nx




Accepting patients needs for self-expression and seeking to teach skills that will
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


contribute to their well-being demonstrate respect and are important parts of
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


advocacy. The on-
nx nx nx

, coming nurse needs to take action to ensure that others are not prejudiced against the
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


patient. Humor can be appropriate within the privacy of a shift report but not at
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


the expense of respect for patients. Judging the off-going nurse in a critical way will
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


create conflict.
nx nx




Nurses must show compassion for each other.

3. A nurse assesses a newly admitted patient diagnosed with major depressive
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


disorder. Whichstatement is an example of attending?
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




a. We all have stress in life. Being in a psychiatric hospital isnt the end of the world.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




b. Tell me why you felt you had to be hospitalized to receive treatment for your depression.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




c. You will feel better after we get some antidepressant medication started for you.
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




d. Id like to sit with you a while so you may feel more comfortable talking
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx




with me. ANSWER: D
nx nx nx nx




Attending is a technique that demonstrates the nurses commitment to the relationship
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


and reduces feelings of isolation. This technique shows respect for the patient and
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


demonstrates caring. Generalizations, probing, and false reassurances are non-
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


therapeutic.

The nurses communication should evidence caring and a commitment to work with
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


the patient. This commitment lets the patient know the nurse will help. Probing and
nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx nx


advice are not helpful or therapeutic interventions.
