The psychiatric nursing questions on the NCLEX exam range between 9 and a 13% of the 75 or 80 questions, or roughly between 10 and 12 nursing psychiatric questions.

Can you identify a psychiatric assessment from a psychiatric diagnostic, plan, implement and evaluate the outcome on any of these common mental disorders? If you don’t feel confident you can, it’s suggested you refresh your Psych 101 and beyond. Most psychiatric conditions are idiopathic and practitioners in most cases only do inferences about the patho- physiology of the same; however, we know now that most mental disorders are classed are neurobiological, psychological or phsycho-social dysfunctions where one syndrome may have several etiologies.
Like any other skills being tested for, the NCLEX software will present the examinee with several questions at several levels of difficulty; if you passed a question the algorithm of the program will increase its difficulty until it proves your skills level.
Psychiatry nursing is considered the Achille’s heel of examinees; a great number of examinees do not pass this area of testing simply because didn’t prepare for psychiatric nursing questions, nor have been expose to psychiatric nursing prior to the NCLEX exam. The nursing process applies to all patients, including of course psychiatric clients. Become familiar with the application of all nursing processes as you know now from a psycho-social view. Assessing the psycho-social integrity of a patient takes training a conscious effort to recognize symptoms and signal, etc.
