QUESTION 1 OF 60

should the nurse use for an adult client?

○ Vastus lateralis
○ Deltoid
○ Dorsogluteal
○ Abdomen

✅ Correct Answer: Deltoid

○ I will remove loose rugs from my home.
○ I will keep my house dimly lit at night.
○ I will wear non-slip shoes indoors.

Rationale: Poor lighting increases the risk of falls. The home should be well-lit, especially at
night, to enhance visibility and prevent tripping hazards.

○ Tilt the client's head forward while swallowing.
○ Offer thin liquids to make swallowing easier.
○ Instruct the client to lie down after eating.

✅ Correct Answer: Tilt the client's head forward while swallowing.

Rationale: Tilting the head forward (chin-tuck position) helps close the airway, reducing the risk
of aspiration in clients with dysphagia.

following instructions should the nurse include?

○ Hold the cane on the weaker side.
○ Move the cane forward with the stronger leg.
○ Move the cane and weaker leg at the same time.
○ Keep the cane behind the body when walking.

✅ Correct Answer: Move the cane and weaker leg at the same time.

Rationale: Moving the cane and weaker leg together provides balance and support while
walking.

QUESTION 5 OF 60

actions should the nurse take?

○ Apply petroleum jelly to the client's lips and nose.
○ Secure the oxygen tubing tightly around the client’s head.
○ Check behind the client's ears for skin breakdown.
○ Position the client in the supine position.

✅ Correct Answer: Check behind the client's ears for skin breakdown.

Rationale: Oxygen tubing can cause pressure injuries behind the ears, so the nurse should assess
for signs of irritation or breakdown.

, QUESTION 6 OF 60

A nurse is preparing to administer eye drops to a client. Which of the following actions should
the nurse take?

○ Instill the drops directly onto the cornea.
○ Ask the client to tilt their head forward.
○ Pull the lower eyelid down to create a pocket.

preventing skin breakdown.
