<p>This NCLEX-RN question is brought to you by <strong>Rachel Allen Reviewers</strong>:</p>
<p>Q: <strong>You are caring for a patient with esophageal cancer. Which task could be delegated to a nursing assistant?</strong></p>
<p>1. Assist the patient with oral hygiene<br />
2. Observe the patient&#8217;s response to feedings<br />
3. Facilitate expression of grief or anxiety<br />
4. Initiate daily weighing<span id="more-8483"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: 1<br />
Oral hygiene is within the scope of duties of the nursing assistant. It is the responsibility of the nurse to observe response to treatment and to help the patient deal with loss or anxiety. The nursing assistant can be directed to weigh the patient but should not be expected to know when to initiate that measurement. Focus: Delegation</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: 1<br />
Providing oral care is within the scope of practice of the nursing assistant. Monitoring and assessing clients, as administering IV fluids, require the additional education and skills of the RN.</span></p>

<p>This NCLEX-RN question is brought to you by <strong>Rachel Allen Reviewers</strong>:</p>
<p>Q: <strong>Which nursing action should the nurse take first to prevent medication noncompliance in a patient with schizophrenia?</strong></p>
<p>A. Teach benefits of medication compliance<br />
B. Build rapport with patient<br />
C. Give medication in an alternate route<br />
D. Assure the patient that the medication is safe to take<span id="more-8426"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: B<br />
The impaired ability to form and maintain interpersonal relationships is the major characteristic of schizophrenia. The major focus of nursing actions centers on helping the patient enter into meaningful socializations. Building rapport and establishing trust are the primary goals to achieve before teaching can be effective.</span></p>

<p>This NCLEX-RN question is brought to you by <strong>Rachel Allen Reviewers</strong>:</p>
<p>Q: <strong>Which of the following findings would be the indicator of the severity of a patient&#8217;s pain</strong></p>
<p>A. The patient states that his pain is a nine on the pain intensity scale<br />
B. The patient&#8217;s blood pressure is 160/88 and pulse is 80.<br />
C. The patient is grimacing and tensing his muscles<br />
D. The patient is moaning and crying<span id="more-8424"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: A<br />
The person with the pain is the expert. Pain intensity can be measured on a one to 10 scale and is an excellent measurement if the patient is able to use such a scale. Since the patient has reported his pain is a nine on this scale, this would be the best indicator of the severity of this pain.</span></p>

<p>This NCLEX-RN question is brought to you by <strong>Rachel Allen Reviewers</strong>:</p>
<p>Q: <strong>Which of the follwoing instruction should a nurse provide to a patient who has diabetes and hypertrophic lipodystrophy?</strong></p>
<p>A. Rotate insulin injection sites<br />
B. Inject insulin at the edge of the affected area<br />
C. Withhold injection of insulin until the area heals<br />
D. Use a longer needle to administer the insulin<span id="more-8422"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: A<br />
Hypertrophic lipodystrophy occurs when the same injection sites are used frequently. The patient should rotate insulin injection sites and avoid using the affected area for six months. This will allow the thickened subcutaneous tissue to regress.</span></p>

<p>This NCLEX-RN question is brought to you by <strong>Rachel Allen Reviewers</strong>:</p>
<p>Q: <strong>A patient experiences difficulty falling asleep. Which of the following drinks should the nurse offer to the patient at bedtime?</strong></p>
<p>A. A cup of coffee<br />
B. A glass of wine<br />
C. A glass of milk<br />
D. A can of soda<span id="more-8418"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Correct Answer: C<br />
As long as there are no medical contraindications, a glass of milk would be the best drink to offer a patient who is having difficulty falling asleep. The dietary amino acid L-tryptophan found in milk is believed to aid in the induction of sleep. Milk also has a good nutritional value, unlike the other choices.</span></p>
