Question 1 of 5

Nurses caring for clients who have cancer and are taking opioids need to assess for all of the following except:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: When caring for clients with cancer who are taking opioids, nurses need to assess for tolerance, constipation, and sedation as these are common side effects of opioid use. Addiction, however, is not a primary concern when treating pain in terminally ill clients. Terminally ill patients are usually not at risk of developing addiction to opioids due to their short life expectancy and the focus on pain management rather than the potential for addiction.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'addiction.'

Choices A, B, and C are essential considerations when managing clients on opioids for pain control.
