Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has a binge eating disorder. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Remain with the client for 1 hr after meals. This is important in managing binge eating disorder as it helps prevent purging behaviors. By staying with the client, the nurse can offer support, prevent post-meal purging, and monitor the client for any signs of distress or discomfort.
Incorrect choices:
B: Weighing the client every other day can contribute to obsession with weight and body image, which can exacerbate the disorder.
C: Offering snacks when the client is hungry may not address the underlying issues causing the binge eating behavior.
D: Planning a menu with the client may not be appropriate as it could trigger anxiety or control issues related to food selection.
