Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

The client had a handgun in a pants pocket that could have been used on others in the client's environment. The diagnosis of Risk for Violence to Others is appropriate for this client. There is not enough information to determine whether or not the client has a self-esteem disturbance, is afraid, or is at risk for loneliness.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

During labor, the nurse will assess the baby's heart rate with an electronic fetal monitor. This is the statement the client should make to prove that education was successful. Although cervical exams are performed on a regular basis, this does not assess fetal status. The client was asked specifically about assessing fetal status in labor. Although bloody show is monitored, doing so does not assess fetal status. Although contraction strength is palpated abdominally, this does not assessment fetal status.
