ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



a. Conducting a mental health assessment. ikr ikr ikr ikr



b. Prescribing psychotropic medication. ikr ikr



c. Establishing a therapeutic relationship. ikr ikr ikr



d. Individualizing a nursing care plan. ikr ikr ikr ikr




ANS: B ikr



In most states, prescriptive privileges are granted to master‘s-prepared nurse practitioners
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



andclinical nurse specialists who have taken special courses on prescribing medication. The
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr

2. A nursing student expresses concerns that mental health nurses ―lose all their clinical
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



nursingskills.‖ Select the best response by the mental health nurse.
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



a. ―Psychiatric nurses practice in safer environments than other specialties. Nurse- ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



to-client ratios must be better because of the nature of the clients‘ problems.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



b. ―Psychiatric nurses use complex communication skills as well as critical ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



thinkingto solve multidimensional problems. I am challenged by those
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



situations.‖ikr



c. ―That‘s a misconception. Psychiatric nurses frequently use high ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



technologymonitoring equipment and manage complex intravenous
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



therapies.‖ ikr



d. ―Psychiatric nurses do not have to deal with as much pain and suffering ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



asmedical–surgical nurses do. That appeals to me.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr




ANS: B ikr



The practice of psychiatric nursing requires a different set of skills than medical–surgical
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



nursing, though there is substantial overlap. Psychiatric nurses must be able to help clients
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



with medical as well as mental health problems, reflecting the holistic perspective these
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



nursesmust have. Nurse–client ratios and workloads in psychiatric settings have increased,
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



just like other specialties. Psychiatric nursing involves clinical practice, not just
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



documentation.
ikr



Psychosocial pain and suffering are as real as physical pain and suffering. ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr

3. When a new bill introduced in Congress reduces funding for care of persons diagnosed
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



with mental illness, a group of nurses write letters to their elected representatives in
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



opposition tothe legislation. Which role have the nurses fulfilled?
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



a. Recovery
b. Attending

ANS: C ikr



An advocate defends or asserts another‘s cause, particularly when the other person lacks
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



the ability to do that for self. Examples of individual advocacy include helping clients
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



understand their rights or make decisions. On a community scale, advocacy includes
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



political activity, public speaking, and publication in the interest of improving the human
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



condition. Since funding is necessary to deliver quality programming for persons with
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



mental illness, the letter-writing campaign advocates for that cause on behalf of clients
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



who are unable to articulate their own needs.

4. A family has a long history of conflicted relationships among the members. Which
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



ikr familymember‘s comment best reflects a mentally healthy perspective?
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



a. ―I‘ve made mistakes but everyone else in this family has also.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



b. ―I remember joy and mutual respect from our early years together.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



c. ―I will make some changes in my behavior for the good of the family.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



d. ―It‘s best for me to move away from my family. Things will never change.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr




ANS: C ikr



The correct response demonstrates the best evidence of a healthy recognition of the
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



importance of relationships. Mental health includes rational thinking, communication
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



skills, learning, emotional growth, resilience, and self-esteem. Recalling joy from earlier
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



in life maybe healthy, but the correct response shows a higher level of mental health. The
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



other incorrectresponses show blaming and avoidance.

5. Which assessment finding most clearly indicates that a client may be experiencing a
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



ikr mentalillness? ikr



a. reporting occasional sleeplessness and anxiety. ikr ikr ikr ikr



b. reporting a consistently sad, discouraged, and hopeless mood. ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



c. being able to describe the difference between ―as if‖ and ―for real.‖
ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr



d. experiencing difficulty making a decision about whether to change jobs. ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr

ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr ikr
