1. A staff nurse completes orientation to a psychiatric unit. This nurse may expect an
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
advancedpractice nurse to perform which additional intervention? a.
g g Conduct mental g g g g g g g g

b. Prescribe psychotropic medication. g g
c. Establish therapeutic relationships. g g
d. Individualize nursing care plans. g g g
ANS: B g
In most states, prescriptive privileges are granted to master‘s-prepared nurse practitioners
g g g g g g g g g g
gandclinical nurse specialists who have taken special courses on prescribing medication. The
g g g g g g g g g g g g

2. A nursing student expresses concerns that mental health nurses ―lose all their clinical
g g g g g g g g g g g g
nursingskills.‖ Select the best response by the mental health nurse.
g g g g g g g g g g g
a. ―Psychiatric nurses practice in safer environments than other specialties. Nurse-to-patient
g g g g g g g g g
ratios must be better because of the nature of the patients‘ problems.‖
g g g g g g g g g g g g
b. ―Psychiatric nurses use complex communication skills as well as critical thinking to solve
g g g g g g g g g g g g
multidimensional problems. I am challenged by those situations.‖
g g g g g g g g
c. ―That‘s a misconception. Psychiatric nurses frequently use high technology monitoring
g g g g g g g g g
equipment and manage complex intravenous therapies.‖
g g g g g g
d. ―Psychiatric nurses do not have to deal with as much pain and suffering as medical– g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
surgical nurses do. That appeals to me.‖
g g g g g g g
ANS: B g
The practice of psychiatric nursing requires a different set of skills than medical–surgical
g g g g g g g g g g g g
nursing, though there is substantial overlap. Psychiatric nurses must be able to help
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
patientswith medical as well as mental health problems, reflecting the holistic perspective
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
these nurses must have. Nurse–patient ratios and workloads in psychiatric settings have
g g g g g g g g g g g g
increased,just like other specialties. Psychiatric nursing involves clinical practice, not just
g g g g g g g g g g g g
documentation. Psychosocial pain and suffering are as real as physical pain and suffering.

3. When a new bill introduced in Congress reduces funding for care of persons diagnosed
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
with mental illness, a group of nurses write letters to their elected representatives in
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
opposition tothe legislation. Which role have the nurses fulfilled?
g g g g g g g g g g
a. Recovery
b. Attending
c. Advocacy
d. Evidence-based practice g
ANS: C g
An advocate defends or asserts another‘s cause, particularly when the other person lacks the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
ability to do that for self. Examples of individual advocacy include helping patients
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
understand their rights or make decisions. On a community scale, advocacy includes
g g g g g g g g g g g g
politicalactivity, public speaking, and publication in the interest of improving the human
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
condition.
g
Since funding is necessary to deliver quality programming for persons with mental illness,
g g g g g g g g g g g g
theletter-writing campaign advocates for that cause on behalf of patients who are unable to
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
articulate their own needs.

4. A family has a long history of conflicted relationships among the members. Which
g g g g g g g g g g g g
familymember‘s comment best reflects a mentally healthy perspective?
g g g g g g g g g
a. ―I‘ve made mistakes but everyone else in this family has also.‖
g g g g g g g g g g
b. ―I remember joy and mutual respect from our early years together.‖
g g g g g g g g g g
c. ―I will make some changes in my behavior for the good of the family.‖
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
d. ―It‘s best for me to move away from my family. Things will never change.‖
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
ANS: C g
The correct response demonstrates the best evidence of a healthy recognition of the
g g g g g g g g g g g g
importance of relationships. Mental health includes rational thinking, communication skills,
g g g g g g g g g g
learning, emotional growth, resilience, and self-esteem. Recalling joy from earlier in life
g g g g g g g g g g g g
maybe healthy, but the correct response shows a higher level of mental health. The other
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
incorrectresponses show blaming and avoidance.
