Question 1 of 5

A nurse in a long-term care facility is caring for a client who has Alzheimer's disease. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Provide a consistent daily routine. Individuals with Alzheimer's disease benefit from a structured routine as it helps reduce confusion and anxiety. Consistency in daily activities can enhance familiarity and comfort for the client, promoting a sense of security and predictability. This routine can also aid in maintaining the client's cognitive function and overall well-being.

Incorrect choices:
A: Post a written schedule of daily activities - While this may be helpful, a consistent routine is more effective in providing stability for individuals with Alzheimer's.
B: Use an overhead loudspeaker to announce events - Loud noises and sudden announcements can be overwhelming for individuals with Alzheimer's, causing distress.
D: Allow the client to choose free-time activities - While promoting autonomy is important, too many choices can lead to confusion and difficulty in decision-making for individuals with Alzheimer's.
