A hyperactive client is experiencing flight of ideas. The most therapeutic activity for him would be:

  1. Doing crafts in occupational therapy
  2. Working a 1000-piece puzzle
  3. Playing bridge with three other clients
  4. Playing basketball in the gym

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

(A) This activity requires motor skills and therefore would be difficult for a hyperactive client. (B) This activity would take too long, and the client would have difficulty concentrating owing to a limited attention span. (C) This client would not be able to concentrate enough to play card games. He would respond to all the stimuli in the area, become distracted, and leave the table. (D) This activity would allow the client to channel his energy in a positive way.

A client has received preoperative teaching for the vertical partial laryngectomy that he is scheduled to have in the morning. The nurse determines that the teaching has been effective when the client states:

  1. "I know I will need special swallowing training after my surgery."
  2. "The quality of my voice will be excellent after surgery."
  3. "I will have very little difficulty swallowing after surgery."
  4. "I may also have to have a radical neck dissection done."

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

(A) A client with a supraglottic (horizontal partial) laryngectomy would require special swallowing training, not a vertical partial laryngectomy. (B) The quality of the client's voice will be altered but adequate for communication. (C) The client will have minimal difficulty swallowing. (D) A radical neck dissection may be done with a total laryngectomy, but not with a partial laryngectomy.
