d. Thoroughly orients the client and family to the room xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




ANSWER: A x t




Competency in client-focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on communication, culture, xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




xt respect compassion, client education, and empowerment. By assessing the effect of the clients culture on
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




xt health care, this nurse is practicing client-focused care. Providing for basic needs does not demonstrate
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




xt this competence. Simplytelling the client about all upcoming tests is not providing empowering
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




xt education.
Orienting the client and family to the room is an important safety measure, but notdirectly related to

2. A nurse is caring for a postoperative client on the surgical unit. The clients blood pressure was 142/76
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




x t mm Hg 30 minutes ago, and now is 88/50 mm Hg. What actionby the nurse is best?

a. Call the Rapid Response Team.

b. Document and continue to monitor. xt xt xt xt

, c. Notify the primary care provider. xt xt xt xt




d. Repeat blood pressure measurement in 15 minutes. xt xt xt xt xt xt




ANSWER: A


The purpose of the Rapid Response Team (RRT) is to intervene when clients are deteriorating before they
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




suffer either respiratory or cardiac arrest. Since the client hasmanifested a significant change, the nurse
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




should call the RRT. Changes in blood pressure, mental status, heart rate, and pain are particularly
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




significant.

Documentation is vital, but the nurse must do more than document. The primary care provider should xt xt xt xt xt xt xt x t x t xt xt xt xt xt xt




be notified, but this is not the priority over calling the RRT. The clients blood pressure should be
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt x t xt xt x t




reassessed frequently, but the priority is getting the rapid care to the client.

3. A nurse is orienting a new client and family to the inpatient unit. What informationdoes the nurse

provide to help the client promote his or her own safety?

c. Offer the family the opportunity to stay with the client.

d. Tell the client to always wear his or her armband.

ANSWER: A


Each action could be important for the client or family to perform. However, encouraging the client to be
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




active in his or her health care as a partner is the mostcritical. The other actions are very limited in scope
xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt xt




and do not provide the broad protection that being active and involved does.
