Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

The nurse should consult the client before approaching the dog.
Service dogs are working animals and it is important to respect their role and the handler’s wishes.
Choice A is wrong because petting the dog briefly to demonstrate acceptance could distract the dog from its duties.
Choice C is wrong because offering the dog a bowl of water without consulting the client first could interfere with the dog’s training or schedule.
Choice D is wrong because commanding the dog to sit while talking with the client could confuse the dog and disrupt its training.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

The nurse should include this intervention in the plan of care because it can help relieve pressure on the reddened areas over the client’s bony prominences and prevent the development of pressure injuries.
Choice A is incorrect because applying an occlusive dressing to intact skin over bony prominences is not an appropriate intervention for preventing pressure injuries.
Choice B is incorrect because turning and repositioning the client every 4 hours may not be frequent enough to prevent the development of pressure injuries.
The client should be turned and repositioned more frequently, at least every 2 hours.
Choice D is incorrect because massaging reddened areas over bony prominences is not recommended as it can cause further damage to the skin and underlying tissues.
