Answer to Question 1

C

Feedback
A Incorrect. Teaching the caregivers and school-aged girls about the prevention of urinary tract infections would not include taking warm bubble baths because they can irritate the child's urinary system.
B Incorrect. Teaching the caregivers and school-aged girls about the prevention of urinary tract infections, the school nurse would teach that the girls would benefit from wearing cotton underwear, not nylon underwear.
C Correct. Teaching the caregivers and school-aged girls about the prevention of urinary tract infections, Girls should always wipe with the toilet tissue from front to back and never from back to front, is the most helpful teaching.
D Incorrect. Teaching the caregivers and school-aged girls about the prevention of urinary tract infections, the nurse would teach the girls to avoid urinary retention, not practice it.

Answer to Question 2

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. Maintaining professional boundaries does not require the avoidance of sharing of any personal information. A boundary is crossed when self-disclosure is excessive.
B Incorrect. Each nurse must maintain professional boundaries separately, and this is not affected by alternating home visits with another nurse.
C Incorrect. Maintaining professional boundaries does not disallow discussing the case with an unbiased nursing colleague.
D Correct. Professional boundaries are defined as the space between the nurse's power and the client's vulnerability. Clarifying roles early can assist the home care nurse to ensure these boundaries are maintained.
