ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME
The hospice nurse is caring for a client diagnosed with AIDS. Which intervention should the nurse implement?
Explanation
ExplanationThe correct answer is C. The client on hospice should prepare for death. The client should have an advance directive in place and discuss funeral plans. Physical assessment is not a priority at this time. Strength training and nutrition are physiological needs which are priority for a client expected to recover. A client on hospice is encouraged to do and eat whatever they desire.
