diarrhea. Which of the following actions should the nurse take when collecting the specimen?

-incorrect: The nurse should place the stool specimen in a clean container using a tongue
depressor.
C. Refrigerate the collected specimen
-incorrect: The nurse should send the collected stool specimen immediately to the laboratory

label on the container and the bag for easy identification. This will also prevent contamination
with microorganisms.

4. A nurse is caring for a client who was admitted to a long-term care facility for rehabilitation
after a total hip arthroplasty. At which of the following times should the nurse begin discharge
planning?
A. One week prior to the client‟s discharge
-incorrect: Beginning to plan for the client‟s discharge a week prior to the event might not allow
sufficient time for planning. The nurse should begin discharge planning at the time of admission.
B. Upon the client‟s admission to the care facility
-The nurse should begin discharge planning at the time that the client is admitted to the facility.
C. Once the discharge date is identified
-incorrect: Beginning to plan for the client‟s discharge once the discharge date is identified might

B. Wear sterile gloves to insert the tubing
-incorrect: The nurse should wear clean (nonsterile) gloves to prevent contamination.
C. Position the client on his left side
-Positioning is an important aspect of administering an enema. Having the client lie on his left
side facilitates the flow of the enema solution into the sigmoid and descending colon.
D. Hold the solution bag 91 cm (36 inch) above the client‟s rectum
-incorrect: The nurse should hold the solution bag 30 cm (12 in) above the client‟s rectum for a
low enema and 45 cm (18 in) for a high enema. If the nurse holds the solution bag too high, the
solution might run in too fast, causing discomfort and spasms that make retaining the enema
more difficult.

actions should the nurse take when assisting the client with feeding?
A. Sit at the bedside when feeding the client

B. Order pureed foods
-incorrect: Without any mouth or throat injuries that make chewing or swallowing difficult, the

who cannot chew, have difficulty swallowing, or do not have teeth.
C. Make sure feedings are provided at room temperature
-incorrect: The nurse should ask the client if the food is the correct temperature
D. Offer the client a drink of fluid after every bite
-incorrect: If the client is unable to communicate, the nurse should offer the client fluids after
every 3 or 4 mouthfuls. However, there is no indication that this client is unable to communicate.
Therefore, the client should tell the nurse when she would like a drink.

6. A nurse is administering an IM injection to a 5-month-old infant. Which of the following
injection sites should the nurse use?
A. Deltoid
-incorrect: The nurse can use the deltoid muscle for injecting small volumes of medication for
children 18 months of age or older, but its proximity to several nerves and arteries make it a
riskier choice.
B. Ventrogluteal
-incorrect: This is a safe site for IM injections for clients older than 7 months.
C. Vastus lateralis
-The nurse should use the vastus lateralis site over the anterior thigh for IM injections for infants
and children.
D. Dorsogluteal
-incorrect: This site is unsafe to use because of its proximity to the sciatic nerve and the superior
gluteal nerve and artery.

7. A nurse is caring for a client who has major fecal incontinence and reports irritation in the
perianal area. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

-incorrect: The nurse should apply a fecal collection system to divert the feces away from the
area of skin irritation; however, there is another action the nurse should take first.
B. Apply a barrier cream
-incorrect: The nurse should apply a barrier cream to decrease skin breakdown in the perianal
area from the feces; however, there is another action the nurse should take first.
C. Cleanse and dry the area
-incorrect: The nurse should cleanse and dry the perianal area to decrease skin irritation;
however, there is another action the nurse should take first.
D. Check the client‟s perineum
-The nurse should apply the nursing process priority-setting framework to plan care and
prioritize nursing actions. Each step of the nursing process builds on the previous step, beginning
with an assessment or data collection. Before the nurse can formulate a plan of action, implement
a nursing intervention, or notify a provider of a change in the client‟s status, the nurse must first
collect adequate data from the client. Assessing or collecting additional data will provide the
nurse with knowledge to make an appropriate decision. The priority nursing action is for the
nurse to collect more data by assessing the area of irritation.
