state gov AIIMS Nursing Officer (NORCET - 8) Mock Test 2025 Nursing Obstetric and Gynecology Nursing
A pregnant woman is admitted with a tentative diagnosis of placenta previa. The nurse implements orders to start an IV infusion, administer oxygen, and draw blood for laboratory tests. The client’s apprehension is increasing, and she asks the nurse what is happening. The nurse tells her not to worry, that she is going to be all right, and that everything is under control. What is the best interpretation of the nurse’s statement?
1
Adequate, because the preparations are routine and need no explanation
2
Effective, because the client’s anxieties would increase if she knew the danger involved
3
Questionable, because the client has the right to know what treatment is being given and why
4
Incorrect, because only the health care provider should offer assurances about management of care
