Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an acute care facility is assisting with the development of an in-service about reducing environmental stressors to improve clients' sleep. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has an indwelling catheter with a urinary drainage system. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Securing the tubing with adhesive tape to the lower abdomen is correct. For male clients, securing the catheter to the lower abdomen prevents urethral trauma and tension. For female clients, the catheter is typically secured to the inner thigh to minimize movement and irritation.
