Scenario Nurse Anne talks with NP Nicole about speech pattern change.
Question Nurse Anne noticed that Ken is exhibiting an altered speech pattern. Which of
the following responses by Ken should Nurse Anne identify as an example of
associative looseness?
Selected Option Emily: Did you end up going to see that movie you’ve been waiting to see? Ken:
Yeah, it had birds in it. Birds can fly. I don’t like it when flies get in the house.
How can I clean the house when the sun doesn’t shine?
Rationale Clients who have schizophrenia may exhibit altered speech patterns. This
pattern is an example of associative looseness, or shifting from one idea to
another.
Optimal Decision
Scenario Nurse Anne positions herself in relation to Ken in the exam room.
Question Nurse Anne observes that Ken is becoming increasingly anxious. Which of the
following actions should Nurse Anne take?
Selected Option Stand off to the side of Ken, more than an arm’s reach away.
Rationale Clients who are exhibiting anxious behaviors are at risk for violence. The nurse
should stand off to the side of the client, more than an arm’s reach away, to
avoid increasing the client’s anxiety. The nurse should have a direct path to the
door in case the client becomes violent and the nurse needs to leave the room
immediately.
Optimal Decision
