ATI Leadership Proctored

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Diagnostic procedure.' When a client experiences an air emboli leading to a stroke during an IV start, it falls under the category of a diagnostic procedure risk. This incident occurred during a procedure intended for diagnosis or evaluation. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Patient dissatisfaction refers to a client's discontent with care, service, or outcomes; a medical-legal incident involves legal issues related to healthcare practices; and a medication error pertains to mistakes in medication administration.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The primary function of discipline is to teach individuals appropriate behavior and help them learn from their mistakes. Discipline is meant to guide individuals towards self-improvement and understanding of rules and expectations. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because discipline is not primarily about punishment, evaluation, or ridicule. While consequences may be a part of discipline, the main goal is to educate and promote positive behavior.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The primary role of a nurse in a patient-centered medical home (PCMH) is to coordinate patient care. Nurses in PCMH settings focus on ensuring continuity of care, managing transitions between different healthcare providers, and facilitating communication among the healthcare team and the patient. Administering treatments, providing health education, and conducting research are important aspects of nursing practice but are not the primary role of a nurse in a patient-centered medical home.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct recommendation the RN should include in the reminders is to 'Only use approved abbreviations.' Using shortcuts in documentation (choice A) may lead to errors or omissions, affecting the credibility of documentation. Documentation should be objective (choice C) rather than subjective to ensure accuracy and legal credibility. It is essential to document care promptly after providing it (choice D) to maintain the accuracy and completeness of patient records, but using approved abbreviations is a more specific recommendation to enhance legal credibility.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is to select flat-soled leather shoes. Patients with peripheral arterial disease, type 2 diabetes, and sensory neuropathy are at risk for foot injuries due to decreased sensation and poor circulation. Flat-soled leather shoes can help prevent injuries and provide adequate support without causing pressure points. Choice B is incorrect as using heating pads can lead to burns for patients with sensory neuropathy. Choice C is wrong because using callus remover may lead to skin damage for patients with compromised circulation. Choice D is not recommended as soaking feet in warm water can further damage the skin due to decreased sensation.
