Nurses protect themselves through efficient use of the body. This is known as:
 
  1. Body mechanics.
  2. Alignment.
  3. Body balance.
  4. Personal safety.

Question 2

The nurse admits a client who delivered 10 days ago to the obstetrician's office. The nurse asks how the client is doing, and the client responds, Okay, I guess. I'm tired, but I hear all new mothers feel that way.
 
  I just feel like I have the flu, and my temperature has been slightly elevated. The nurse will ask this client: 1. Have you noticed any painful red spots on your breast or change in vaginal discharge?
  2. Do you have anyone at home to help you so you can get some rest occasionally without being interrupted by the baby?
  3. How is the baby doing?
  4. What method of birth control are you using?

Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Body mechanics is the term used to describe safe, efficient use of the body to move objects and carry out activities of daily living.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: It is not normal for a woman to feel flu-like and have a fever, so the nurse should question the origin of these symptoms, which is most likely mastitis or an infected episiotomy.
