Touhy, and Kathleen F Jet Chapter 1-28 Test Bank Ebersole and Hess’ Gerontological Nursing & Healthy Aging 5th Edition by Theris A. Touhy, and Kathleen F Jet Chapter 1-28. Test Bank Ebersole and Hess’ Gerontological Nursing & Healthy Aging 5th Edition by Theris A.

Wellness is not a real option for this client because he is terminally ill. c. Wellness is defined as the absence of disease. d. Nursing interventions can help empower a client to achieve a higher level of wellness. ANS: D Nursing interventions can help empower a client to achieve a higher level of wellness; a nurse can foster wellness in his or her clients. Wellness is defined by the individual and is multidimensional. It is not just the absence of disease. A wellness persp ective is based on the belief that every person has an optimal level of health independent of his or her situation or functional level.

In differentiating between heNalUthRaSndIwNeGllnTeBss.inChOeMalth care, which of the following statements is true? a. Health is a broad term encompassing attitudes and behaviors. b. The concept of illness prevention was never considered by previous generations. c. Wellness and self-actualization develop through learning and growth. d. Wellness is impossible when one’s health is compromised. ANS: A Health is a broad term that encompasses attitudes and behaviors; holistically, health includes wellness, which involves one’s whole being. The concept of illness prevention was never considered by previou s generations; throughout history, basic self -care requirements have been recognized. Wellness and self -actualization develop through learning and growth —as basic needs are met, higher level needs can be satisfied in turn, with ever -deepening richness to life. Wellness is possible when one’s health is compromised —even with chronic illness, with multiple disabilities, or in dying, movement toward a higher level of wellness is possible.

In most cultures, older adults are likely to treat themselves using traditional methods before turning to biomedical professionals. c. Ayurvedic medicine is another name for traditional Chinese medicine. d. The belief that health depends on maintaining a balance among opposite qualities is characteristic of a magicoreligious belief system. ANS: B Older adults in most cultures usually have had experience with traditional methods that have worked as well as expected. After these treatments fail, older adults turn to the formal health care system. Even in the United States, it is common for older adults to pray for cures or wonder what they did to incur an illness as punishment. The Ayurvedic system is a naturalistic health belief system practiced in India and in some neighboring countries. This belief is characteristic of a holistic or naturalistic approach. PTS: 1 DIF: Understand REF: p. 16-17 TOP: Nursing Process: Assessment MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance 2. Which of the following. to be true when working with an interpreter? a. An interpreter is never needed if the nurse speaks the same language as the patient. b. When working with interpreters, the nurse can use technical terms or metaphors. c. A patient’s young granddaughter who speaks fluent English would make the best interpreter because she is familiar with and loves the patient. d. The nurse should face the patient rather than the interpreter. ANS: D The nurse should face the patient rather than the interpreter is a true statement; the intent is to converse with the patient, not with a third party about the patient. Many reasons may prevent the patient from speaking directly to a nu rse. Technical terms and metaphors may be difficult or impossible to translate. Cultural restrictions may prevent some topics from being spoken of to a grandparent or child. PTS: 1 DIF: Understand REF: p. 18-19 TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation MSC: Safe, Effective Care Environment 3. An older adult who is a traditional Chinese man has a blood pressure of 80/54 mm Hg and refuses to remain in the bed. Which intervention should the nurse use to promote and maintain his health? a. Have the health care provider speak to him. b. Use principles of the holistic health system. c. Ask about his perceptions and treatment ideas. Ebersole and Hess' Gerontological Nursing and Healthy Aging 5th Edition Touhy Test Bank d. Consult with a practitioner of Chinese medicine. ANS: C Using the LEARN model ( listen with sympathy to the patient’s perception of the problem, explain your perception of the problem, acknowledge the differences and similarities, recommend treatment, and negotiate agreement), the nurse gathers information from the patient about cultural beliefs concerning health care and avoids stereotyping the patient. In the assessment, the nurse determines what the patient believes about caregivi ng, decision making, treatment, and other pertinent health -related information. Speaking with the health care provider is premature until the assessment is complete. Unless he accepts the beliefs, principles of the holistic health system can be potentially unsuitable and insulting for this patient. Unless he accepts the treatments, consulting with a practitioner of Chinese medicine can also be unsuitable and insulting for this patient. PTS: 1 DIF: Apply REF: p. 18 TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance 4. Which action should the nurse take when addressing older adults? a. Speak in an exaggerated pitch. b. Use a lower quality of speech. c. Use endearing terms such as “honey.” d. Speak clearly. ANS: D Some health professionals demonstrate ageism, in part because providers tend to see many frail, older persons and fewer of those who are healthy and active. Providers should not assume that all older adults are hearing or mentally impaired. The most appropriate action when addressing an older of unintentional ageism in language are an exaggerated pitch, a demeaning emotional tone, and a lower quality of speech. PTS: 1 DIF: Apply REF: p. 15 TOP: Nursing Process: Assessment MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance 5. The nurse prepares an older woman, who is Polish, for discharge through an interpreter and notes that she becomes tense during the instructions about elimination. Which intervention should the nurse implement? a. Move on to the discussion about medication. b. Ask the older woman how she feels about this topic. c. Instruct the interpreter to repeat the instructions. d. Have the older woman repeat the instructions for clarity. ANS: B When working with an interpreter, the nurse closely watches the older adult for nonverbal communication and emotion regarding a specific topic and therefore validates the assessment about the older adult’s tension before proceeding. Because the nurse notices her tension, the nurse temporarily suspends the p reparation to validate her assessment. If the nurse proceeds and the older adult is uncomfortable discussing elimination, then important instructions can be missed, leading to adverse effects for the older adult. Repeating the instructions can aggravate the older adult’s discomfort. Instructing the older adult to repeat the nurse’s instruction ignores her needs.
