Try 3 Coordinated Care questions
A 52-year-old man on a medical-surgical unit is recovering from a transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) performed 2 days ago for benign prostatic hyperplasia. The plan of care specifies continuous bladder irrigation until urine output is clear to light pink, with the catheter to remain in place per the urologist's postoperative orders. His baseline urine output has been light pink drainage without clots. While assisting him to the bathroom, the LPN overhears him tell his roommate that "the night nurse said I could just pull this catheter out myself in the morning since I'm feeling fine." The LPN also notes his current drainage has become bright red with several small clots, a change from the prior shift. What should the LPN do first?

Common questions
What is Coordinated Care on the NCLEX-PN®?
Coordinated Care is the PN test plan's version of the RN category Management of Care. It covers how practical nurses advocate for clients, set priorities, protect client rights, and work under the direction of an RN or provider. It carries the largest share of questions on the 2026 PN test plan.
How is Coordinated Care different from Management of Care?
Same territory, different scope. RN questions test independent decisions and delegation downward. PN questions test coordination within the practical nurse scope: contributing to the care plan, reporting to the RN, and knowing which tasks can be assigned to assistive personnel.
