Select the correct order of words to fit in the sentence structure: 'The nursing ___ put the Band- ___ on the wound to ___ the nurse.'
- A. aid, aide, aide
- B. aide, aid, aid
- C. aid, aide, aid
- D. aide, aid, aide
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct order of words to fit in the sentence structure is 'aide, aid, aid.' 'Aide' refers to a person who assists (nursing aide), while 'aid' refers to help or assistance (Band-aid and aid the nurse). Therefore, the sequence 'aide, aid, aid' correctly completes the sentence. Choices A, C, and D have the incorrect order of words that do not fit the sentence context.

Where is the posterior part of the body located?
- A. Topmost
- B. Lowermost
- C. Front
- D. Back
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The term 'posterior' refers to the back of the body. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Back.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. 'Topmost' and 'Lowermost' do not specifically refer to the back of the body, and 'Front' is the opposite of 'Back.'
What is the best description of the word 'insidious'?
- A. stealthy
- B. deadly
- C. collapsed
- D. new
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'stealthy.' 'Insidious' is often used to describe something that proceeds in a gradual, subtle, but harmful way. It is not directly or openly harmful like 'deadly,' nor does it mean 'collapsed' or 'new.' Therefore, 'stealthy' best captures the meaning of 'insidious.'
Which word correctly completes the sentence? 'I ___ the package on the table.'
- A. Layed
- B. Drop
- C. Laid
- D. Lay
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Laid.' 'Laid' is the correct past tense form of 'lay,' which means to put something down. 'Layed' in choice A is incorrect as the past tense of 'lay' is 'laid,' not 'layed.' Choice B, 'Drop,' is incorrect as it does not fit the context of placing something on the table. Choice D, 'Lay,' is the base form of the verb and does not fit the sentence in the past tense.
Select the meaning of the word 'occluded' in the sentence: 'The patient had an occluded artery.'
- A. Obstructed
- B. Open
- C. Broken
- D. Cloudy
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: 'Occluded' means blocked or obstructed, making 'Obstructed' the correct answer. In the context of a patient having an occluded artery, it implies that the artery is blocked. The other options, 'Open,' 'Broken,' and 'Cloudy,' do not accurately describe a blocked artery.
Which word is NOT CORRECTLY USED in the sentence? Confidentiality should be observed at all times, so the nurse should not discuss clients when the conversation can be overheard.
- A. Be observed
- B. By
- C. Can be
- D. Should not
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. In the sentence, 'be observed' should be changed to 'should be observed' for proper grammar. 'Should be observed' is the correct way to indicate the necessity of maintaining confidentiality. Choice B, 'by,' is used correctly as a preposition. Choice C, 'can be,' is also used correctly in the sentence. Choice D, 'should not,' is correctly used to indicate what the nurse ought not to do.
