Chapter 1
Question 1
Type: MCSA
While conducting a health history, a client states, “I am healthy, I don‟t know why I have to be
here to get a check-up.” However, the client reports, type 2 diabetes mellitus and an unhealed
ulcer on the left foot. Based on this information, which statement by the nurse is the most
appropriate?
1. “I feel that you are in denial about your health status.”
2. “Tell me about your definition of being healthy.”
3. “Do you understand what diabetes is?”
4. “Is there anything else you are not telling me?”
Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: More information would be needed before the nurse could attribute the client‟s
viewpoint as denial or lack of knowledge.
Rationale 2: A client will have his or her own definition of health, illness, and wellness. The
individual‟s concept of health and wellness is influenced by many factors, including age, gender,
race, family, culture, religion, socioeconomic conditions, environment, previous experiences, and
self-expectations.
Rationale 3: The client‟s history of type 2 diabetes is a valid area requiring further investigation
but the nurse must first ascertain the client‟s definition of healthy.
Rationale 4: There is not enough information to determine the client‟s withholding of
information to the nurse.
Global Rationale: A client will have his or her own definition of health, illness, and wellness.

, Question 2
Type: MCSA
Which information would the nurse include in the assessment category when using SOAP to
documents in the medical record?
1. The client‟s blood pressure was 177/93.
2. The recent loss of employment and insurance has prevented the client from being able to
afford prescription medications.
3. The client reports having lost her job and insurance 3 months ago.
4. Referrals have been made to social services to determine financial assistance programs
available.
Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: This is the “O” component; objective data.
Rationale 2: The “A” component of the SOAP note refers to conclusions drawn from the
subjective and objective data obtained.
Rationale 3: This is subjective data (“S” component).
Rationale 4: This is the “P” component, plan.
Global Rationale: The “A” component of the SOAP note refers to conclusions drawn from the
subjective and objective data obtained. The client‟s recent loss of employment and the potential
that this was a contributing factor in the inability to afford medications is an example of a
conclusion. The client‟s reported blood pressure would be an example of objective data.
Objective data is information that can be measured by the examiner. Blood pressure is not an
example of subjective information nor is it a conclusion. The client‟s reported loss of
employment and insurance is an example of subjective data. The statement does not include
conclusions as to the results of these events. Making referrals to social services is an example of
an intervention. It is not a conclusion.
