Question 1 of 5
An acute care nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative and has a prescription for physical therapy 2-3 times per day for 2 weeks. Which of the following resources should the nurse anticipate that the client will require upon discharge?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Skilled nursing. The client will require skilled nursing services postoperatively to monitor their recovery progress, manage any potential complications, provide wound care, and assist with physical therapy sessions. Skilled nursing care is typically provided in a short-term basis following surgery to help the client regain independence and transition back to their normal activities of daily living.
Summary of incorrect choices:
B: Assisted living - Typically for individuals who require minimal assistance with activities of daily living, not intensive postoperative care.
C: Long-term care - Provides ongoing care for individuals with chronic conditions or disabilities, not typically needed postoperatively for a short-term period.
D: Palliative care - Focuses on providing relief from symptoms and stress of a serious illness, not specific to postoperative care needs.
