Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who had a stroke and requires assistance with morning ADLs. Which of the following interprofessional team members should the nurse consult?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Occupational therapist. Occupational therapists specialize in helping individuals regain independence in activities of daily living (ADLs) after a stroke. They focus on improving fine motor skills, cognitive abilities, and adaptive techniques to enhance the client's ability to perform self-care tasks. Consulting an occupational therapist will benefit the client in achieving functional independence.
Choice A (Physical therapist) primarily focuses on mobility and strength training, which may not directly address ADLs.
Choices C (Speech-language pathologist) and D (Registered dietitian) are important team members but do not specifically address ADLs.
