Rationale: Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that play a key role in fighting infections. An elevated neutrophil count can indicate the presence of an infection.
Therefore, before reporting the finding of a red, tender, and swollen wound at the site of the lesion to the healthcare provider, the nurse should note the client's neutrophil count.
