HESI A2 - Critical Thinking Questions and Answers Already Passed 1. The nurse is working in the emergency department (ED) of a children's medical center. Which client should the nurse assess first?... 1. The 1-month-old infant who has developed colic and is crying. 2. The 2-year-old toddler who was bitten by another child at the day-care center. 3. The 6-yearold school-age child who was hit by a car while riding a bicycle. 4. The 14-year-old adolescent whose mother suspects her child is sexually active. ✔✔Rationale Correct - 3-The child hit by a car should be assessed first because he or she may have lifethreatening injuries that must be assessed and treated promptly. 1. In an interview, the nurse may find it necessary to take notes to aid his or her memory later. Which statement is true regarding note-taking? A) Note-taking may impede the nurse's observation of the patient's nonverbal behaviors. B) Note-taking allows the patient to continue at his or her own pace as the nurse records what is said. C) Note-taking allows the nurse to shift attention away from the patient, resulting in an increased comfort level. D) Note-taking allows the nurse to break eye contact with the patient, which may increase his or her level of comfort. ✔✔A) Note-taking may impede the nurse's observation of the patient's nonverbal behaviors.
