Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning care for an older adult client who has urinary incontinence. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the client's plan of care?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Apply a moisture barrier in a thick layer to the vulnerable skin areas. This intervention is appropriate as it helps protect the skin from irritation and breakdown caused by prolonged exposure to moisture from urinary incontinence. By creating a barrier between the skin and moisture, the risk of skin damage is reduced.
Choice B is incorrect as antibacterial soap and hot water can be harsh on the skin and strip away natural oils, leading to further irritation.
Choice C is incorrect because toileting every 4 hours may not be frequent enough for an older adult with urinary incontinence.
Choice D is incorrect as reducing fluid intake can lead to dehydration and other health issues.
