ADULT HEALTH NURSINGEXAM PRACTICE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
2. A nurse is speaking to a group of prospective nursing students about what it is like to be a nurse.
What is
one characteristic the nurse would cite as necessary to possess to be an effective nurse?
A) Sensitivity to cultural differences
B) Team-focused approach to problem-solving
C) Strict adherence to routine
D) Ability to face criticism - CORRECT ANSWER -Ans: A
Feedback:
To promote an effective nurse-patient relationship and positive outcomes of care, nursing care must be
culturally competent, appropriate, and sensitive to cultural differences. Team-focused nursing and strict
adherence to routine are not characteristics needed to be an effective nurse. The ability to handle
criticism is important, but to a lesser degree than cultural competence.
6. A group of nursing students are participating in a community health clinic. When providing care in this
context, what should the students teach participants about disease prevention?
A) It is best achieved through attending self-help groups.
B) It is best achieved by reducing psychological stress.
C) It is best achieved by being an active participant in the community.
D) It is best achieved by exhibiting behaviors that promote health. - CORRECT ANSWER -Ans: D
Feedback:
Today, increasing emphasis is placed on health, health promotion, wellness, and self-care. Health is seen
as resulting from a lifestyle oriented toward wellness. Nurses in community health clinics do not teach
that disease prevention is best achieved through attending self-help groups, by reducing stress, or by
being an active participant in the community, though each of these activities is consistent with a healthy
lifestyle.
