A nurse in a provider's office is reinforcing teaching about disease prevention with an older adult client. Which of the following immunizations should the nurse recommend to the client?

The correct answer is choice A, participate in reminiscence therapy with the client. This is an effective intervention for individuals with Alzheimer's disease. It involves encouraging the client to discuss past experiences and events. It has been shown to improve mood, decrease agitation, and increase communication skills. The reminiscence therapy should be individualized and tailored to the client's interests and abilities.

1. Raising the four side rails on the client's bed is not the correct answer because this could cause harm to the client by restricting their mobility and independence.
2. Alternating the client's daily routine is not the correct answer because individuals with Alzheimer's disease benefit from a consistent routine, which helps them to feel more secure and less anxious.
3. Keeping the lights dimmed is not the correct answer because it can be disorienting and confusing for clients with Alzheimer's disease, who need adequate lighting to distinguish their surroundings.

The correct answer is choice A, Perform suctioning. Restlessness and crackles in the lungs may indicate respiratory distress or airway obstruction, which may be due to mucus or secretions blocking the tracheostomy tube. Performing suctioning helps clear the airway of secretions, which will improve the client's breathing. Choice B is incorrect because instilling saline into the tubing is not a common intervention for managing restlessness and crackles. Choice C is incorrect because checking the cuff pressure is not related to managing restlessness and crackles. Choice D is incorrect because increasing humidification is not a common intervention for managing restlessness and crackles.

Instill saline into the tubing: Instilling saline into the tubing is not a common intervention for managing restlessness and crackles.

Check the cuff pressure: Checking the cuff pressure is not related to managing restlessness and crackles.

Increase the humidification: Increasing humidification is not a common intervention for managing restlessness and crackles.
