Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has late-stage Alzheimer's disease and is hospitalized for treatment of the flu. During the night shift,the client is found climbing into the bed of another client who becomes upset and scared. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Assist the client to the correct room. This is the appropriate action as it addresses the immediate issue of the client being in the wrong room, which is causing distress to the other client. Moving the client to the correct room ensures safety and comfort for both clients. Medicating with antipsychotics (choice
A) is not the first-line intervention in this situation and should be avoided unless absolutely necessary due to potential side effects. Moving the client to a room at the end of the hall (choice
C) may not address the underlying issue and can isolate the client unnecessarily. Placing the client in restraints (choice
D) should be avoided as it can be traumatic and is not indicated in this scenario.
