The first time I did listen to Hurst but for some reason it wasn't sinking in. Now with the YouTube my LIGHT BULB came on...I don't know if it's because she repeats the information a lot (I'm not sure) but she goes over more information than Hurst. I listened to the course more than once. I made sure I understood what she was talking about. I believe if you standard everything she goes over you will be covered. My test had a VARIETY and I mean a VARIETY of everything. I'm talking about in the answers to choose from, you really have to know the information. And really pay attention to the WORD choice they use. Example the answer could be 24 hours but they will put 48 hours to see if you’re really paying attention. Also this time around I would break down the answers and clarify what it was talking about THIS REALLY helped me out in answering all questions even select all s. Let me know if this helps and if any other questions PLEASE let me know...GOOD LUCK YOU WILL PASS TOO Nursetobe89
Thank you so much for the reply! True she repeats the info multiple times. I listen to her when I drive and it does helps big time. Hurst wasn't sinking either and they don't cover many topics. I agree!!!!! I am trying to pass since 2014. I did listen to strategies videos of kaplan which helped me to break down questions more... :)
★Test ★
1. The nurse is planning care for a client of Native Hawaiian descent who recently had a baby. The nurse develops a teaching plan and includes information about which measure that is related to a newborn complication within this ethnic group?
A. Safe sleeping
B. Car seat safety
C. Breast-feeding
D. Baby-proofing
2. The nurse is planning care for an assigned client. The nurse should include information in the plan of care about prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) for which individuals specifically at risk?
A. Lesbian persons
B. Men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM)
C. Women-who-have-sex-with-women (WSW)
D. Female-to-male (FTM) transgender persons
答案(Answers) 1. A
Rationale: The Native Hawaiian population has a disproportionately higher rate of infant mortality compared with other ethnic groups. Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is a major cause of infant mortality. Safe sleeping is an important measure to prevent this newborn complication. Car seat safety, breast-feeding, and baby-proofing are important safety measures but are not specific to Native Hawaiians. 2. B
Rationale: MSM (men-who-have-sex-with-men) are at a higher risk for HIV and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Although anyone who is sexually active should be counseled on prevention of sexually transmitted infection, the other populations mentioned are not at an increased risk for HIV/AIDS.
