"I'll be sure to eat foods with lots of vitamin K.".
"It's okay to have a couple of glasses of wine with dinner.".
The Correct Answer is A
A nurse should never share her password for access to the facility’s computer system with anyone.
Sharing passwords can compromise the security and confidentiality of patient information.
For the second question you asked, the correct answer is choice A.
“I’ll use my electric razor for shaving.” This statement indicates that the client understands that warfarin (coumadin) can increase the risk of bleeding and that using an electric razor can help reduce the risk of cuts and bleeding while shaving.
Choice B is not the best answer because taking aspirin while on warfarin (coumadin) can increase the risk of bleeding.
Choice C is not the best answer because eating foods high in vitamin K can interfere with the effectiveness of warfarin (Coumadin).
Choice D is not the best answer because drinking alcohol while on warfarin (coumadin) can increase the risk of bleeding.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The nurse should administer 2 tablets.
Since each tablet contains 325 mg of aspirin, to administer a dose of 650 mg, the nurse should give 650 mg / 325 mg/tablet = 2 tablets.
Choice A is incorrect because 1 tablet would only provide a dose of 325 mg.
Choice C is incorrect because 3 tablets would provide a dose of 975 mg.
Choice D is incorrect because 4 tablets would provide a dose of 1300 mg.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
The statement “I won’t seal my lips around the mouthpiece and take slow, deep breaths” indicates a need for further teaching.
When using a nebulizer, the client should place the mouthpiece in their mouth between their teeth and close their lips around it 1.
They should also take slow, deep breaths to ensure that the medication is properly inhaled 1.
Choice A is incorrect because washing the mouthpiece with warm soapy water each day is a recommended action 2.
Choice B is incorrect because storing the nebulizer at room temperature is acceptable.
Choice D is incorrect because it is not necessary to keep medication in the nebulizer at all times.
