EXAM 3 Nursing Fund Practice
Questions and Answers |100% Pass

Which of the following are considered ethical problems? Select all that apply. Hint: There are 4

correct answers. - Answer✔✔-A physician is performing a thoracentesis on a patient who does

not particularly like the doctor. After one failed attempt, the patient tells the physician to stop.

The physician asks you to give an anxiolytic so she can just get the procedure done quickly.


You are taking care of a patient with a history of cocaine abuse who is in severe pain following

several thoracic vertebrae fractures secondary to a fall off a ladder. After multiple calls to a

resident physician, you are still waiting for a response when you decide to call the resident's

attending physician.


In your post-clinical conference discussion with your nursing instructor, you avoid using patient

identifiers in describing the care you gave to your patient today.


A student is about to administer an intramuscular injection for the first time, when the client

asks "Is this your first shot?" The student responds with "No, I've given several before" because

they want to decrease the client's anxiety.


You are frustrated with the lack of response by management in addressing the severe short

staffing within your hospital unit. Your brother tells you that he can get you an interview with a

local news station to help address the issue.

A nurse shows a fellow nurse on another floor a picture of a patient's large sacral pressure ulcer

that she posted to Instagram. The patient is lying down and all identifiers have been removed

from the photograph.


In what way can a nurse differentiate strong research from poor research? - Answer✔✔-by

critiquing the study


Feedback:Nurses must have a working knowledge of research methods, and basic ability to read

for application and to critique research.


During a clinical placement on a subacute, geriatric medicine unit, a student nurse fed a stroke

client some beef broth, despite the fact that the client's diet was restricted to thickened fluids.

As a result, the client aspirated and developed pneumonia. Which statement underlies the

student's potential liability in this situation? - Answer✔✔-The same standards of care that apply

to a registered nurse apply to the student.


Feedback:Despite the fact that their knowledge and skills are still under development, nursing

students are held to the same standards of care as registered nurses. Consequently, primary

liability does not lie with the student's instructor or the client's primary nurse. Insurance may be

carried by the school of nursing, but this does not negate the student's legal responsibility to

provide care at a high standard.


What nursing organization first legitimized the use of the nursing process? - Answer✔✔-

American Nurses Association

Feedback:Although the term "nursing process" was first used by Lydia Hall in 1955 and nursing

theorists delineated specific steps in a process approach to nursing, use of the nursing process

was legitimized in 1973, when the American Nurses Association's Congress for Nursing Practice

developed Standards of Practice to guide nursing performance.


A group of nurse researchers has proposed a study to examine the efficacy of a new wound care

product. Which aspect of the methodology demonstrates that the nurses are attempting to

maintain the ethical principle of nonmaleficence? - Answer✔✔-The nurses are taking every

reasonable measure to ensure that no participants experience impaired wound healing as a

result of the study intervention.


Feedback:The principle of nonmaleficence dictates that nurses avoid causing harm. In this study,

this may appear in the form of taking measures to ensure that the intervention will not cause

more harm than good. The principle of justice addresses the distribution of risks and benefits.

The informed consent process demonstrates that autonomy is being protected. Preliminary

indications of the therapeutic value of the intervention show a respect for the principle of

beneficence.


Which aspect of nursing would be most likely defined by legislation at a state level? -

Answer✔✔-The differences in the scope of practice between registered nurses (RNs) and

licensed practical nurses (LPNs).


Feedback:The scope of practice defines the parameters within which nurses provide care, and is

established by state legislation, most commonly in the form of a Nurse Practice Act. The criteria

and due process for delegation in the clinical setting is addressed by a state board of nursing.
