testing strategies

I FOUND THIS ON ANOTHER BLOG AND THOUGHT THAT IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL FOR OUR UPCOMING TEST.

Test Strategies

1.If the question asks what you should do in a situation, use the nursing process to determine which step in the process would be next.
2.If the question asks what the client needs, use Maslow's hierarchy to determine which need to address first.
3.If the question indicates that the client doesn't have an urgent physiologic need, focus on his safety.
4.If the question involves communicating with a patient, use the principles of therapeutic communication.
