HESI MED SURG RN V1 EXAM- COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 1. A nurse is teaching a patient about medications. Which statement from the patient indicates teaching is effective? a. "My parenteral med... ication must be taken with food." b. "I will rotate the sites in my left leg when I give my insulin." c. "Once I start feeling better, I will stop taking my antibiotic." "If I am 30 minutes late taking my medication, I should skip that d. dose." ANS: B For daily insulin, rotate site within anatomical area. Rotating injections within the same body part (instrasite rotation) provides greater consistency in absorption of medication. Parenteral medication absorption is not affected by the timing of meals. Taking a medication 30 minutes late is within the 60-minute window of the time medications should be taken.

With some medications, such as antibiotics, it is crucial that the full course of medication is taken to avoid relapse of infection. [Show More]
