ACTUAL EXAM QUESTIONS FROM RELIABLE SOURCES
WITH CORRECT ANSWERS AND RATIONALES (VERIFIED)
1. Mr. James is 91 years old. His daughter notices that he has
bruises and lacerations on his arms and reports this to the nurse
practitioner, who tells her that older people bruise easily due to
their fragile blood vessels. The skin lacerations happen because
he has thin skin. Even so, the nurse practitioner assures the
daughter that she will investigate further to ensure that he is
getting proper care. She says this because she understands that:
1. These markings on the patient's skin are part of aging skin.
2. Bruises and lacerations can indicate inadequate care.
3. The daughter needs assurance that her father is okay.
4. The patient is being abused. Correct Answer 3. Answer: 2
Feedback
1.
Markings on the skin may be signs of aging, a disease, or
maltreatment.
2.
Poorly healing wounds or chronic pressure ulcers may signal a
problem not only with the patient but with the caregiver's ability to
,provide adequate care. Welts, lacerations, burns, and distinctive
markings may indicate a need for intervention.
3.
This is a result of the nurse practitioner addressing it further rather
than the reason for addressing it.
4.
A professional cannot assume abuse without good reason.
