NURSING 265 (SEXUALITY) WEEK 11 QUESTIONS AND 100%CORRECT ANSWERS!!
The nurse provides information about a healthy diet to a 57-year-old female
patient. What should the nurse instruct the patient to increase in the diet?
Answers :Calcium
Rationale
Encouraging the patient to increase her calcium intake would be the best
suggestion, because calcium increases bone mass. Menopause occurs at an age of
around 50 to 55 years, and postmenopausal complications include reduced bone
density due to decreased production of estrogen. Carbohydrates, protein, and fiber
do not maintain estrogen levels in the body.Test-Taking Tip: Identifying content
and what is being asked about that content is critical to your choosing the correct
response. Be alert for words in the stem of the item that are the same or similar in
nature to those in one or two of the options .
pp. 1193-1194
Which guideline for the assessment of intimate partner violence (IPV) should the
emergency nurse follow?
Answers :Patients should be routinely screened for family and IPV.
Rationale
In the emergency department, the nurse needs to screen for family and IPV.
Routine screening for this risk factor is required. Such assessment should not be
limited to female, high-risk, or young patients, and evidence need not be present to
screen for the problem.Test-Taking Tip: Being prepared reduces your stress or
tension level and helps you maintain a positive attitude.

Which are nursing interventions provided specifically by sexual assault nurse
examiners (SANEs)?
,Answers :Providing expert emergency care
Collecting and documenting evidence
Rationale
The emergency department nurses are encouraged to become certified sexual
assault nurse examiners (SANEs). The SANE provides expert emergency care to
the assault victims and collects and documents evidence of the assault. Non-SANE
staff may provide emotional support, inform victims about their legal rights, and
screen the victim for family violence.Test-Taking Tip: Be alert for details about
what you are being asked to do. In this question type, you are asked to select all
options that apply to a given situation or patient. All options likely relate to the
situation, but only some of the options may relate directly to the situation.
p. 1644
A young woman and her spouse present to the emergency room claiming the
woman tripped and fell. The woman has periorbital edema and ecchymosis over
the right eye. She avoids eye contact and displays a blunted affect. What is the
nurse's best action in this situation?
Answers :Ask the husband to leave the exam room so the nurse can finish the
physical assessment.
rationale
The priority in this situation is to be able to talk to the woman privately about the
events leading to her fall. Asking her if she "really tripped and fell" in front of the
spouse is not likely to result in an honest recounting of the situation if there is a
domestic violence situation and may anger the spouse. Calling social services to
handle the situation without further assessment into the situation is not appropriate.
Social services should be contacted after the initial nursing assessment is
completed. Calling the nursing supervisor also should not be done until the
assessment is completed.Test-Taking Tip: Key words or phrases in the question
, stem such as first, primary, early, or best are important. Similarly, words such as
only, always, never, and all in the alternatives are frequently evidence of a wrong
response. No real absolutes exist in life; however, every rule has its exceptions, so
answer with care.

Which factors that may exist in small rural communities prevent a victim from
seeking help with intimate partner violence (IPV)?
Answers :Traditional gender roles
Fear of lack of confidentiality
Patriarchal attitudes
Economic factors
Rationale
Factors that may exist in small rural communities that prevent a victim from
seeking help with IPV include traditional gender roles, fear of lack of
confidentiality, patriarchal attitudes, and economic factors. Health literacy and age
are not factors associated with preventing a victim experiencing intimate partner
violence from seeking help in a small rural community.Test-Taking Tip: Be alert
for details about what you are being asked to do. In this question type, you are
asked to select all options that apply to a given situation or patient. All options
likely relate to the situation, but only some of the options may relate directly to the
situation.
