Question 1 of 5
A nurse is developing a teaching plan for an older adult client who has a new prescription for insulin glargine. Which of the following expected outcomes should the nurse include in the plan?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: The client will wear his reading glasses when drawing up a dose of insulin glargine. This is important to ensure accurate dosage measurement, preventing dosing errors. Using reading glasses can help the older adult see the markings clearly, reducing the risk of under or overdosing. Option A is incorrect because taking an additional dose of insulin glargine prior to exercise without proper guidance can lead to hypoglycemia. Option C is incorrect because the deltoid muscle is not a recommended injection site for insulin glargine. Option D is incorrect as insulin glargine is typically administered once a day at the same time each day, not necessarily before each meal.
