Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has diabetes and plans to administer his regular insulin subcutaneously before he eats breakfast at 0800. After checking the client's morning glucose level, which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Give the insulin at 0730. This is the correct timing for administering regular insulin subcutaneously before breakfast at 0800. The rationale is to ensure the insulin starts working before the client consumes food, thus helping to regulate blood sugar levels effectively. Option A (0700) is too early, which may lead to hypoglycemia before breakfast. Option B (when the breakfast tray arrives) is not ideal as the insulin needs time to start working. Option C (30 min after breakfast with other routine medicines) is incorrect as insulin should be given before meals to prevent blood sugar spikes. Option D (0730) is the best choice to allow the insulin adequate time to begin working before the client eats breakfast.
