Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer a medication to a client who states, 'That looks different from the pill I usually take.' Which is the best response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: "What does your usual pill look like?" This response allows the nurse to gather important information about the client's medication, ensuring accuracy and safety. By asking the client to describe their usual pill, the nurse can verify if the correct medication is being administered. It also opens up a dialogue for the client to express any concerns or discrepancies. The other choices lack the direct inquiry needed to address the client's statement effectively.
Choice A assumes the medication is the same without confirming.
Choice C is a vague statement that does not address the client's concern.
Choice D focuses on lot numbers, which is not relevant to the client's observation.
