Which of the following are examples of nursing implementations? (Select All That Apply)

To calculate the number of 40mg capsules needed for a 2-grain dose, you need to convert grains to milligrams since the supply is given in milligrams (mg).

1 grain is approximately equal to 64.8 milligrams.

Now, let's calculate:

2 grains * 64.8 mg/grain = 129.6 mg

So, the nurse would give 129.6 milligrams of the medication. Since the supply is in 40mg capsules, you'll need to divide the total dose by the amount in each capsule to determine the number of capsules needed:

129.6 mg / 40 mg/capsule ≈ 3.24

Since you can't give a fraction of a capsule, the nurse would give 4 capsules to achieve a dose of approximately 129.6 milligrams.

A. Closed Body Posture:
Active listening often involves open body language, where the listener appears receptive and engaged. Closed body posture, where arms are crossed and body faces away, can indicate disinterest or disagreement, which is not a characteristic of active listening.

B. Three Senses - Sight, Hearing, and Touch:
Active listening primarily involves the sense of hearing. While non-verbal cues like facial expressions and body language are important, active listening doesn't necessarily include touch or sight as direct senses employed during the process.

C. Only Verbal Messages:
Active listening involves not only hearing the words spoken but also understanding the emotions, intentions, and concerns behind those words. It includes interpreting verbal and non-verbal cues, making it more than just processing verbal messages.

D. Focused Energy:
Active listening does require focused energy. It means being mentally present, concentrating on the speaker, and showing genuine interest in what they are saying. This focus allows the listener to comprehend the message and respond appropriately.
