Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer a rectal suppository to a client. In which of the following positions should the nurse place the client for insertion of the suppository?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Sims position. In the Sims position, the client lies on the left side with the upper leg flexed. This position allows for better access to the rectum, making it easier for the nurse to insert the suppository. Placing the client in the supine position (choice
A) would not provide optimal access. The prone position (choice
B) and lying on the right side (choice
C) are also not suitable for rectal suppository insertion as they do not facilitate proper access to the rectum.
Therefore, the Sims position is the most appropriate choice for administering a rectal suppository effectively.
