A nurse is caring for an infant who has coarctation of the aorta. Which of the following should the nurse identify as an expected finding?

A. Food stamps: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), commonly called food stamps, provides financial assistance for purchasing nutritious food. For a client below the poverty level, this resource helps ensure adequate nutrition, which is essential for recovery during home IV therapy.

B. Medicaid: Medicaid offers health coverage for low-income individuals, including coverage for home health services and necessary medical equipment. Enrolling the client in Medicaid can facilitate access to home IV therapy and reduce out-of-pocket expenses.

C. Respite care: Respite care provides temporary relief to caregivers but is not directly relevant to a young adult client managing home IV therapy independently. While useful in certain situations, it is not a primary resource for financial or medical support in this case.

D. Medicare Part A: Medicare primarily covers hospital and skilled nursing facility care for adults over 65 or with certain disabilities. A young adult below the poverty level is unlikely to qualify, making this an inappropriate recommendation for home IV therapy coverage.

E. Adult day care: Adult day care services are designed for older adults requiring supervision or social interaction. This service is not applicable for a young adult client requiring home IV therapy and does not address financial or medical support needs.

A. Irritability: While clients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) may experience frustration when routines are disrupted, irritability alone is nonspecific and not a defining characteristic of the disorder.

B. Shows perfectionism: Perfectionism is a hallmark feature of OCPD. Clients often exhibit rigid adherence to rules, high standards, and meticulous attention to detail, which can impair flexibility, efficiency, and interpersonal relationships.

C. Impulsivity: Impulsivity is more characteristic of disorders such as borderline personality disorder or ADHD. Clients with OCPD are typically controlled, deliberate, and resistant to spontaneous changes.

D. Takes advantage of others: Exploitative behavior is associated with antisocial personality disorder, not OCPD. Individuals with OCPD tend to be conscientious, rule-bound, and focused on personal standards rather than manipulating others for personal gain.
