The old client had to walk along the hall to reach the examination room. During assessment the nurse hears an S4. Which is the best intervention at this moment?
- A. Practice an EKG
- B. Administer nitroglycerin sublingual
- C. Allow rest recumbent for 30 minutes
- D. Call MD immediately
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: An S4 in an elder post-walk suggests diastolic stiffness the nurse allows 30 minutes recumbent rest, not EKG, nitroglycerin, or calling.

In Hospital STV, senior administration is strongly oriented toward fiscal and social conservatism. The nursing department is deeply concerned with the provision of quality to the community, which includes a high number of poor and unemployed. To accomplish the goals of the nursing department, resources need to be allocated that administration is not able to allocate. Nursing and administration:
- A. Are engaged in shared governance
- B. Are involved in an irreconcilable conflict of interests
- C. Represent separate subcultures in the institution
- D. Represent union and nonunion conflict
Correct Answer: C

Subcultures within organizations have unique values and goals, here creating tension over resource allocation. This isn't shared governance (collaborative decision-making), irreconcilable conflict (not proven unresolvable), or union disputes (no union mentioned). These separate ideologies can coexist, potentially constructively, but currently highlight differing priorities, fitting the subculture concept where groups within an institution operate with distinct, sometimes clashing, perspectives.
