• B. Tell the nursing assistant to give the pain medication to the client complaining of pain
• C. Tell the nursing assistant to go the client’s room and tell the client to wait
• D. Finish the bed bath quickly then rush to the client in Pain

Correct answer: D

2. A client is being taught about foods to include in a low-fiber diet. Which statement indicates the client understands the teaching?

• A. "A fresh pear would be a good snack option."?
• B. "I can prepare refried beans for supper."?
• C. "Bran cereal would be a good breakfast choice."?
• D. "I should choose white rice as a side dish."?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is "I should choose white rice as a side dish." In a low-fiber diet, foods that are low in fiber are recommended to reduce gastrointestinal irritation. White rice is a low-fiber option suitable for this diet. Choices A, B, and C are high-fiber options and not suitable for a low-fiber diet. A fresh pear, refried beans, and bran cereal are all high in fiber, which should be avoided in a low-fiber diet.

3. When is infertility said to exist?

• A. When a woman has no uterus
• B. When a woman has no children
• C. When a couple has been trying to conceive for 1 year without success
• D. When a couple has desired a child for 6 months

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Infertility is defined as not being able to get pregnant despite having frequent, unprotected sex for at least a year for most couples. Therefore, the correct answer is C. A, B, and D are incorrect. While having no uterus (choice A) may result in infertility, it is not the sole determining factor. Similarly, not having children (choice B) does not automatically indicate infertility. Lastly, the time frame of 6 months (choice D) is not sufficient to determine infertility; typically, a year of trying without success is required for such a diagnosis.

4. Which gluten-free food choice would be most appropriate for a patient with celiac disease?

• A. Scalloped potatoes
• B. Oatmeal
• C. Eggs
• D. Tortillas

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Eggs are a safe food choice for individuals with celiac disease as they are naturally gluten-free. Scalloped potatoes often contain flour in the sauce, which might contain gluten. Oatmeal can be a subject of debate due to possible cross-contamination during processing, so it might not be safe unless labeled gluten-free. Tortillas are typically made from wheat flour containing gluten, but gluten-free versions are available. However, eggs are universally gluten-free, making them the best choice for individuals with celiac disease.

5. Approximately 75% of reputable producers of bottled water use groundwater as their water source. Plain tap water is the most natural source of fluids.

• A. Both statements are true.
• B. Both statements are false.
• C. The first statement is true; the second is false.
• D. The first statement is false; the second is true.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Both statements are true. Approximately 75% of reputable producers of bottled water use groundwater as their water source, which is the same source as the public water supply. Plain tap water, coming from underground sources or reservoirs, is indeed a natural source of fluids. The first statement is supported by the fact that groundwater is a common source for bottled water due to its purity and taste. The second statement is true as tap water is sourced from natural reservoirs or underground aquifers in most cases, making it a natural fluid source for consumption. Other choices are incorrect because both statements are factually accurate based on common practices in the production and sourcing of bottled water and tap water.
