Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a patient diagnosed with osteoporosis and lactose intolerance. What intervention will the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Monitor intake of calcium. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weakened bones, and calcium is essential for bone health. Lactose intolerance may limit the patient's ability to consume dairy products, a common source of calcium. By monitoring the patient's calcium intake, the nurse can ensure they are meeting their daily requirements through alternative sources like leafy greens, fortified foods, or supplements. Encouraging dairy products (
B) is not suitable due to lactose intolerance. Increasing intake of caffeinated drinks (
D) is not recommended as caffeine can interfere with calcium absorption. Trying to do as much as possible for the patient (
A) is vague and does not address the specific needs related to osteoporosis and lactose intolerance.
