Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing discharge teaching with an older adult client who has osteoarthritis. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Water aerobics classes are a low-impact exercise that can help improve joint flexibility and reduce pain associated with osteoarthritis. This choice demonstrates the client's understanding of the importance of staying active while being gentle on the joints.
A: Applying cold compresses may help with pain temporarily but does not address the need for regular exercise to improve joint health.
B: Limiting purine intake is more relevant for clients with gout, not osteoarthritis.
D: Avoiding ibuprofen for pain control is not recommended as it is a common medication used to manage osteoarthritis pain.
In summary, choice C is the best option as it aligns with the management of osteoarthritis by promoting physical activity that is gentle on the joints.
