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: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Sim's position. Placing the client in Sim's position allows for easier insertion of the rectal suppository as it helps to expose the rectum and facilitate entry of the suppository. In Sim's position, the client lies on their left side with the left leg straight and the right leg flexed. This position helps to relax the anal sphincter and provides better access to the rectum for insertion.
A: Supine position is not ideal for rectal suppository insertion as it does not provide optimal access to the rectum.
C: Lying on the right side is not preferred as it may make insertion more challenging.
D: Prone position is not suitable for rectal suppository administration as it does not facilitate access to the rectum.
