Chapter 01: Overview of Professional Nursing Concepts
for MedicalSurgical Nursing
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A nurse wishes to provide client-centered care in all interactions.
Which action by the nurse best demonstrates this concept?
a. Assesses for cultural influences affecting health care
b. Ensures that all the clients basic needs are met
c. Tells the client and family about all upcoming tests
d. Thoroughly orients the client and family to the room
ANS: A
Competency in client-focused care is demonstrated when the nurse focuses on
communication, culture, respect, compassion, client education, and empowerment. By
assessing the effect of the clients culture on health care, this
nurse is practicing client-focused care. Providing for basic needs
does not demonstrate this competence. Simply telling the client about all
upcoming tests is not providing empowering education. Orienting
the client and family to the room is an important safety
measure, but not directly related to demonstrating client-centered care.
2. A nurse is caring for a postoperative client on the surgical
unit. The clients blood pressure was 142/76 mm Hg 30 minutes ago,
