Question 1 of 5
A nurse is admitting a client who is scheduled for an elective surgery. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to verify the status of the client's advance directives?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Ask the client whether they have advance directives. This is the most appropriate action because it directly involves the client in confirming their own advance directives status. By directly asking the client, the nurse ensures that the information is current and accurate. It also respects the client's autonomy and allows them to express their wishes regarding their care.
Choice B is incorrect because the client's identification card typically does not contain detailed information about their advance directives status.
Choice C involves verifying with a health care surrogate, which may not always be possible or necessary at the time of admission.
Choice D focuses on a specific type of advance directive (do-not-resuscitate order) and may not cover other aspects of the client's directives.
