Comprehensive Exam Review
1. A nurse is providing anticipatory guidance to parents of a
4-year-old child. Which statement by the parents indicates a
need for further teaching?
a) "We should encourage our child to play with other children."
b) "We will allow our child to choose what to wear each day."
c) "We will give our child a timeout for having a temper
tantrum."
d) "We will ignore our child's stuttering because it will go away
on its own."

will go away on its own."

*Rationale: Stuttering in a 4-year-old may be a normal
dysfluency, but if it persists beyond 6 months or is accompanied
by tension or avoidance, it requires evaluation. Parents should be
taught to model slow speech and not to interrupt or punish the
child. Ignoring it without monitoring is not appropriate.*
2. Scenario: A school nurse is teaching a class on injury
prevention for adolescents. Which topic is most important to
include?
a) Booster seat use
b) Motor vehicle safety and distracted driving
c) SIDS prevention
d) Fall prevention in the home
Answer: b) Motor vehicle safety and distracted driving
Rationale: Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death
among adolescents. Teaching about seat belts, no texting while

driving, and no driving under the influence is a priority for this age
group.
3. A nurse is assessing a 2-month-old infant during a well-
child visit. Which milestone indicates normal development?
a) Sits without support
b) Rolls over from front to back
c) Lifts head and chest when prone
d) Transfers objects from hand to hand
Answer: c) Lifts head and chest when prone
*Rationale: By 2 months, infants can typically lift their head and
chest when lying on their stomach. Rolling over occurs around 4-6
months, sitting without support around 6-8 months, and
transferring objects around 7-9 months.*
4. The nurse is providing health promotion teaching to a
group of older adults. Which recommendation is most
appropriate for maintaining cognitive health?
, Page 4 of 190
a) "Avoid learning new skills to prevent frustration."
b) "Engage in regular physical exercise and social activities."
c) "Take ginkgo biloba supplements daily."
d) "Reduce fluid intake to prevent falls."
Answer: b) "Engage in regular physical exercise and social
activities."
Rationale: Evidence shows that regular physical activity and social
engagement help maintain cognitive function in older adults.
Supplements like ginkgo biloba are not proven effective; avoiding
new skills is counterproductive; reducing fluid intake risks
dehydration.
5. A nurse is planning a health fair for a community with a
high proportion of young adults. Which screening should the
nurse prioritize?
a) Prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
b) Mammography
