A nurse is assisting with postmortem care for a client who was a devout follower of Islam. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin, while insulin glargine is a long-acting insulin. It is important to keep them separate to maintain their individual properties and avoid any potential interactions or changes in their effectiveness.

Insulin glargine is a clear solution and should not appear cloudy. Cloudiness in insulin can indicate contamination or improper storage.

The instruction to "take an extra dose of insulin lispro prior to aerobic exercise" is not recommended. The client should consult with their healthcare provider to determine if any adjustments to their insulin regimen are necessary for exercise. Typically, adjustments are made based on the individual's blood glucose levels and anticipated intensity and duration of exercise. Insulin glargine is a long-acting insulin that provides a steady release of insulin over a prolonged period, without distinct peaks or valleys in its action. Its onset of action is gradual and its effect lasts for approximately 24 hours.

It is important for the client to receive accurate and appropriate instructions regarding their insulin regimen. The nurse should clarify any misunderstandings and provide accurate information to promote safe and effective diabetes management.

Dependent personality disorder is characterized by an excessive reliance on others for decision-making and a fear of being alone or taking responsibility. Encouraging the client to be assertive helps promote their independence and self-confidence. It allows them to express their needs and preferences, make decisions, and take responsibility for their own actions. Empowering the client to be assertive can enhance their overall well-being and promote healthier relationships.

Limiting the client's social interactions may exacerbate their dependency and hinder their progress in developing more self-reliance and independent coping skills. It is important to encourage appropriate and healthy social interactions while also promoting the client's independence.

Maintaining a verbal no-harm contract with the client is a strategy more commonly used for clients at risk of self-harm or harm to others. It may not be directly applicable to the care of a client with dependent personality disorder unless there are specific safety concerns. Assuming responsibility for making the client's decisions would reinforce their dependency and enable their avoidance of taking personal responsibility. It is important to promote autonomy and support the client in making their own decisions whenever possible.
