Question:
Where should the nurse aid place the signaling device for a client is paralyzed on the right side?
A
On the left side of the bed near patients head
explanation
Clients who have had a stroke often have one-sided weakness or paralysis. They may not be able to utilize that side of their body, or may not even be aware of the affected side. This is called “one-side neglect.” Rehabilitation services will aid the patient in recovering as well as possible, but as the client’s caregiver, you can encourage the patient to utilize the unaffected side by placing the signaling device where the patient can reach it to call for assistance.

There are definitely a few mistakes in this app, some of the answers are just plain wrong so make sure this is not your only source of study material. Other than that this app is very helpful.

I would love to give this app 5 stars but in the Nursing Skills section it does not allow you to go on to part 7. After you get to part 6 it either just never loads or it tells you to go to part 7 and does absolutely nothing.
