✍️ Sample Ambulatory Care Test Questions & Answers

1. A nurse working in a primary care clinic is conducting a social determinants of health (SDOH) screening. A patient discloses food insecurity. Which is the most appropriate immediate nursing response?
✓ Acknowledge the patient's disclosure, provide information about local food assistance programs, and include SDOH findings in the care plan

Acknowledging the disclosure, providing actionable community resources, and incorporating SDOH into the care plan reflects patient-centered ambulatory nursing care.

2. During a telephone triage call, a parent reports their 2-year-old ingested an unknown household chemical 10 minutes ago. What is the FIRST action?
✓ Direct the parent to call Poison Control (1-800-222-1222)

Poison Control provides expert, substance-specific guidance and should be contacted immediately in any ingestion case.

3. A patient with type 2 diabetes asks about the recommended frequency for self-monitoring of blood glucose. Which response is MOST appropriate for a well-controlled patient on oral agents only?
✓ Monitor as directed by their provider based on individual needs

SMBG frequency for non-insulin-treated type 2 diabetes should be individualized based on the provider's clinical judgment and patient-specific factors.

4. When triaging a patient who speaks limited English, the BEST practice for obtaining an accurate patient history is:
✓ Use a qualified medical interpreter, either in-person or via phone/video

Qualified medical interpreters ensure accurate, confidential communication and are legally required under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.

5. In a patient with newly diagnosed hypertension who is Black, which antihypertensive drug class is recommended as PREFERRED first-line therapy?
✓ Calcium channel blocker or thiazide diuretic

ACC/AHA guidelines recommend calcium channel blockers or thiazide diuretics as preferred initial therapy in Black patients because ACE inhibitors are less effective in this population.

6. Based on the most recent Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) strategy report, which statement best describes the recommended approach for adult patients with mild asthma?
✓ As-needed low-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)-formoterol is the preferred reliever therapy.

The GINA guidelines have made a significant shift away from recommending SABA-only treatment for mild asthma (Step 1) due to evidence that it does not address underlying inflammation and may increase the risk of severe exacerbations. The preferred approach for both relief of symptoms and to reduce future risk is as-needed low-dose ICS-formoterol. Daily ICS is for more persistent asthma (Step 2 and higher), and scheduled SABA is not recommended.
