A nurse is assisting a client who requests to take a tub bath. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

This statement accurately reflects the client's own account of what happened, providing important information about the circumstances leading to the fall. Including the client's statement helps document the client's perspective and can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the event.

"The client fell because the assistive personnel did not place nonskid slippers on the client." This statement assigns blame to the assistive personnel without sufficient evidence. It is important to maintain objectivity and avoid making assumptions or assigning fault without proper investigation or documentation of facts.

"The client does not appear to have any injuries resulting from the fall." While it is important to assess the client for any injuries after a fall, documenting this information may be more appropriate in the client's assessment or nursing notes rather than in the specific documentation about the fall incident itself.

"An incident report has been completed and sent to risk management." While it is important to report falls and complete an incident report for quality improvement and risk management purposes, this information is more relevant to internal documentation and reporting processes rather than inclusion in the medical record for the client's care.

Budesonide is a corticosteroid inhaler used for long-term management of asthma. It helps to reduce inflammation and prevent asthma symptoms. Rinsing the mouth and gargling with water after using a corticosteroid inhaler can help reduce the risk of developing oral thrush, a fungal infection.

The other statements are incorrect and indicate a misunderstanding of the teaching: "I will take my inhaler treatment before each meal and at bedtime": Budesonide is not typically used before meals or at bedtime. It is usually taken on a regular schedule, as prescribed by the healthcare provider, to provide long-term control of asthma symptoms.

Using the inhaler before exercising is important because physical activity can trigger asthma symptoms in some individuals. By using the inhaler before exercise, the client can help prevent exercise-induced asthma symptoms. However, this depends on the degree of difficulty of the exercise.

"I should use my inhaler when I have an asthma attack": Budesonide is not a rescue inhaler for immediate relief of asthma symptoms during an asthma attack. It is a controller medication meant to be used regularly to prevent symptoms from occurring.
