Answer to #1

C
Two of the four primary patient areas covered in the NCLEX-RN exam contain the smallest
percentage of questions in relation to the entire exam. These areas are psychosocial integrity (6 to
12) and health promotion and maintenance (6 to 12). Physiological integrity contains the most
with 43 to 51, and safe, effective care environment contains 21 to 33.

Answer to #2

D
Another way that nurses make effective use of available time is by setting priorities. Three priority areas have been identified to assist nurses in categorizing tasks for safe patient outcomes. These categories are: 1) first priority: problems with ABCs; 2) second priority: activities essential to safety; and 3) third priority: comfort, healing, and teaching. While planning and prevention are also important parts of nursing, they can be located under the other three categories depending on the task and patient need.

Answer to #3

C
The acronym ABC can be used to assist nurses with prioritization of patient care and assessment of patient needs. ABC stands for: A=airway (patent airway?); B=breathing (respiratory status?); and C=circulation (circulatory compromise?).

Answer to #4

D
The advent of professional nursing has benefited patients by lower rates of nurse-sensitive outcomes.
Some of these include lower death rates for pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis, gastrointestinal
bleeding, sepsis, life-threatening complications, shock, cardiac arrest, urinary tract infections, and
failure to rescue..

Answer to #5

A, C, D, F
Your approach as change agent should include maintaining a positive attitude, mapping out a tentative
timeline, selecting the change project team carefully, and checking the timeline for targeted activities.
You would not look for possible conflicts, but if conflict occurs, you should never back away from it.
