Question 1 of 5
A nurse has received a report on a group of clients. Which of the following client clients should the nurse assess first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. A client with a left-sided stroke reporting severe headache and confusion should be assessed first due to the potential risk of worsening neurological status. Headache and confusion could indicate a worsening condition such as hemorrhage or increased intracranial pressure, requiring immediate intervention to prevent further damage. Assessing this client first allows for prompt treatment and prevention of complications.
Choices A, B, and C involve clients with chronic conditions or stable vital signs that do not indicate immediate danger. Assessing the client with a left-sided stroke takes priority over these cases due to the acute nature of the symptoms.
