Which of<br>considerations should the nurse make when determining the appropriate population for this<br>project?<br>a. The fastest growing population is children under the age of 12.<br>b. The fastest growing population is young Black American adults.<br>c. The fastest growing population is White middle-age adults.<br>d. The fastest growing population is non-White older adults age 65 and older.<br>ANS: D<br>Adults age 85 and older are the fastest growing population in the United States, and the<br>percentage of White Americans greater than age of 65 is decreasing compared with other ethnic<br>groups.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application) REF: p. 592<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which of the following statements made by a client best identifies someone who would benefit<br>from health promotion interventions?<br>a. \u201cI have a new grandchild and want to be part of her life.\u201d<br>b. \u201cMy mother lived until she was 90, so a long life is in my genes.\u201d<br>c. \u201cSome chronic illness is just a part of aging.\u201d<br>d. \u201cI hope I\u2019ll live a lot longer, but one never knows.\u201d<br>ANS: A<br>Motivation to adopt a healthy lifestyle is a primary predictor of successful interventions. Feeling<br>that illness is just part of aging or leaving health up to chance will not help the person make<br>necessary lifestyle changes.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 595<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which of the following statements concerning nutrition and older adults is true?<br>a. Older adults who live in their own homes are more likely to be malnourished than<br>older adults living in a nursing home.<br>b. Older adults lose their desire for high-fat, salty foods.<br>c. Meals served in long-term care institutions are usually more well-balanced than<br>foods eaten by older adults living at home.<br>d. Many older adults are not aware of food assistance programs.<br>ANS: D<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barriers that may interfere with the ability of independent seniors to obtain adequate nutritional<br>food include limited transportation, income, and social support resources. Many older persons<br>are unaware that they are eligible to participate in SNAP. The percent of older adults who live in<br>their own homes and are malnourished is lower than that of older adults who live in a nursing<br>home. Older adults do not lose their desire for high-fat, high-cholesterol, high-sodium foods.<br>Fresh fruits and vegetables are not always available for older adults living in nursing homes.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand (Comprehension) REF: pp. 596-597<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"4\">\n<li>Which of the following statements concerning urinary incontinence is correct?<br>a. Urge incontinence occurs when one has the urge to void but is unable.<br>b. Stress incontinence is associated with emotional turmoil.<br>c. Functional incontinence occurs is associated with environmental barriers.<br>d. Incontinence with high post-void residual occurs when someone laughs or sneezes.<br>ANS: C<br>Functional incontinence is associated with environmental barriers, physical limitations, or<br>cognitive impairment in which the client is unable to reach the toilet. Stress incontinence occurs<br>when someone coughs or sneezes. Urge incontinence occurs when someone cannot wait to void<br>once the urge to void is felt. Urge, mixed, or stress incontinence with high post-void residual is<br>caused by physiological changes that affect voiding, such as an enlarged prostate gland.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand (Comprehension) REF: p. 597<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which of the following nursing diagnoses is a priority related to the problem of urinary<br>incontinence?<br>a. Risk for social isolation<br>b. Risk for impaired skin integrity<br>c. Risk for inadequate fluid intake<br>d. Risk for impaired coping<br>ANS: B<br>Although social isolation and decreased fluid intake may occur because of urinary incontinence,<br>impaired skin integrity is a major concern because of its impact on physical and psychological<br>health.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 597<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A 75-year-old man tells the nurse that he has difficulty staying asleep during the night. Which of<br>the following responses should be made by the nurse?<br>a. \u201cOlder adults need as much sleep as middle-age and younger adults. Let\u2019s talk<br>about your sleep patterns.\u201d<br>b. \u201cI\u2019ll ask the nurse practitioner to prescribe a sleeping pill for you.\u201d<br>c. \u201cTaking naps during the day can help relieve excessive fatigue and will help you<br>sleep better.\u201d<br>d. \u201cLet\u2019s talk about your sleep schedule and things that may prevent you from getting<br>a restful night\u2019s sleep.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ANS: D<br>Nurses should assist older adults in achieving a good night\u2019s sleep through assessment that might<br>reveal possible causes of sleep disturbances. Older adults need less sleep than younger adults.<br>Daytime naps may prevent sleeping adequately at night. Medications to assist in sleeping are not<br>the initial therapy choice because of side effects.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application) REF: pp. 599-560<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"7\">\n<li>A nurse is conducting a community education program about cognition in older adults. Which of<br>the following information should be included?<br>a. Some form of mild dementia is a normal part of aging.<br>b. All forms of dementia have the same symptoms, but progress at different rates.<br>c. Assessment for dementia should be part of routine physical exams.<br>d. Elders who score below 27 points on the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) are not<br>likely to have a cognition problem.<br>ANS: C<br>Cognitive alterations are key symptoms that indicate changes in physiological function among<br>older persons. Thus, assessment of cognition is an important part of routine assessments.<br>Dementia is not a normal part of aging. Dementia symptoms vary according to the specific type<br>of dementia. A score of 23 or lower on the MMSE indicates a problem with cognition.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application) REF: pp. 600-601<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A nurse has recently accepted the position of unit nurse manager on a long-term care unit. Which<br>of the following directives should the nurse give to the staff nurses?<br>a. Encourage residents to participate in unit activities such as Scrabble\u2122 and bingo.<br>b. Demonstrate the caring aspect of nursing by dressing residents before breakfast.<br>c. Fill in \u201cmissing words\u201d during conversation with the residents to avoid<br>embarrassment.<br>d. Instruct the aides to get residents ready for breakfast as quickly as possible to make<br>sure they are ready to eat.<br>ANS: A<br>To encourage cognitive health nurses should inspire older individuals to take classes, read,<br>engage in stimulating conversation and entertainment, keep their minds active, and continue<br>learning throughout their lives. They are encouraged to continue with self-care activities rather<br>than relinquish them to caregivers. Residents should be encouraged to perform self-care<br>activities themselves. When help is required, it should be provided in an unhurried manner.<br>Filling in missing words makes the resident dependent on the staff and reduces motivation to<br>communicate, and the words supplied may not be the intended words.<br>DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application) REF: p. 602<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A nurse is assisting with development of menu items at a long-term care facility.
