Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching the family of a client who has Alzheimer's disease about caring for the client at home. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Place a large face clock in the client's bedroom. This is important for clients with Alzheimer's disease as it helps them maintain a sense of time and routine. People with Alzheimer's often struggle with time perception, so having a clock with large, easy-to-read numbers can assist them in understanding the time of day. This can help reduce confusion and anxiety.
A: Keeping the client's bedroom dark at night may increase confusion and disorientation for someone with Alzheimer's.
B: Covering electrical outlets with tape is not relevant to caring for a client with Alzheimer's at home.
C: Hanging a monthly calendar in the client's bedroom may not be as effective as a large face clock in helping the client understand time.
