Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has urinary incontinence. Which of the following actions should the nurse implement to prevent the development of skin breakdown?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale:
Correct Answer: C: Apply a moisture barrier ointment to the client's skin.


Rationale: Applying a moisture barrier ointment helps protect the skin from irritation and breakdown caused by prolonged exposure to moisture from incontinence. This forms a protective barrier, maintaining skin integrity. Checking the skin every 8 hours (
A) may not prevent breakdown as frequently as needed. Cleaning with hot water (
B) can strip the skin of natural oils and worsen skin irritation. Requesting an indwelling catheter (
D) is invasive and increases the risk of infection, not preventing skin breakdown.
