"Explanation:
The act of punishing a patient by isolating him or her from the other patients is known as involuntary isolation. The patient in this case was punished by being shut away in a closet after talking excessively during dinner. False confinement occurs when a patient is forcibly confined from moving around as they choose.
When the nurse disregards the patient's private or exposes the patient's body while providing care, privacy is invaded. When a nurse disregards a patient's requirements, it is considered to be a negligent act."
"Explanation:
When giving a resident a partial bed bath, the first thing you should do is make sure the water is at a safe and comfortable temperature. The occupant should then be covered so that just the area of the body being washed is visible.
The resident's face should then be washed using a washcloth devoid of soap."
"Explanation:
Although it is permissible, you are not compelled to pray with your patients. You must always treat the religious items of your patients with respect and care.
Additionally, you ought to support the patient's right to practice his or her own religion."
"Explanation:
A patient who has hypoglycemia has low blood sugar. This patient would not seem to be in a relaxed state; rather, he or she would seem agitated and/or confused. Hypoglycemia individuals would exhibit the following signs or symptoms at extremely high blood sugar levels: shallow breathing, a rapid and weak pulse, no change in speech, and clammy, chilly, and pale skin.
Slurred speech, slow or normal heartbeat, deep (sweet-smelling) respirations, slow or normal pulse, heated, flushed, and dry skin are all indications of hyperglycemia (high blood sugar)."
"Explanation:
When the patient's buttocks are exposed, you should immediately detach the thermometer pack from its charger and insert the rectal probe. You wouldn't lube the probe until after covering the thermostat with a plastic cover.
After that, you would expose the patient's anus with your non-dominant hand."
"Explanation:
A strong pain reliever known as an analgesic may produce confusion or constipation in the patient. The best thing to do is therefore to keep an eye on the patient for a shift in attentiveness, as this could be an indication of confusion. The patient is more likely to fall if they become disoriented.
You should notify the patient's nurse if you see a change in the patient's level of awareness or if the patient is having constipation."
"Explanation:
When rinsing off the soap from your hands after washing them, you should always keep your fingers below your wrist. To dry your hands, don't use a linen towel; instead, use a paper towel.
Additionally, instead of using your left hand to turn off the warm water, use that paper towel."
"Explanation:
Spreading your feet and bending your knees will help you lower the patient to the ground if they start to fall while you are ambulating. You shouldn't try to hang on to the patient's belt because doing so could damage both you and the patient.
The patient shouldn't be allowed to fall to the floor on their own because doing so could seriously hurt them and leave you unable to call for aid, but you should still let the patient's nurse know what happened."
"Explanation:
The personal trait of flexibility is what allows a nursing assistant to accept a new task without protest. During your employment as a nursing assistant, you'll probably be transferred to a different patient group or unit, so you'll need to be adaptable and accept the disturbance to your regular schedule.
Being considerate involves showing patients and coworkers that you are thoughtful, kind, and caring. Self-responsibility is the practice of taking responsibility for oneself. It includes wearing the proper personal protection equipment, taking care of one's own health, keeping one's workspace free of risks, and minimizing one's workload to save energy."
"Explanation:
It is your responsibility to notify the patient's nurse right away if they express or exhibit suicidal intent. While it is your responsibility to keep the information a patient shares with you private, you also have a duty to report it if it has the potential to endanger the patient.
Never promise a patient that you would keep a secret since you could end up endangering them."
"Explanation:
The brachial artery should be covered by the stethoscope bell when taking a patient's blood pressure. You should do this with your non-dominant hand and keep the stethoscope's bell away from the patient's clothing and the blood pressure cuff.
You must place the dial on the blood pressure cuff so that you can see it quickly if it is there."
