A nurse is collecting data from a 24-month-old toddler during an annual physical examination.
Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

Moist heat can help reduce pain and stiffness in the joints by increasing blood flow and relaxing the muscles. Moist heat can be applied using warm compresses, heating pads, or warm baths.

Choice A is wrong because using a recliner when sitting for long periods can increase pressure on the knees and decrease circulation. A better option is to use a straight-backed chair with a footstool.

Choice C is wrong because sleeping on a soft mattress can cause poor alignment of the spine and joints, which can worsen pain and mobility. A firm mattress is recommended for clients with osteoarthritis.

Choice D is wrong because placing large pillows under the knees when lying in bed can limit the range of motion of the knees and cause contractures. A small pillow under the knees can provide some support and comfort, but it should not be too large or too high.

Contact information for a community mental health center. A community mental health center can provide ongoing outpatient care and support services for a client who has schizophrenia after discharge from an inpatient unit. A community mental health center can also help the client access other resources such as medication, housing, and vocational training.

Choice B is wrong because a list of primary prevention activities is not relevant for a client who already has schizophrenia. Primary prevention aims to prevent the occurrence of a disease or disorder in the first place.

Choice C is wrong because contact information for enrollment in a 12-step program is not appropriate for a client who has schizophrenia unless they also have a substance use disorder. A 12-step program is a self-help group that follows a set of principles to achieve and maintain sobriety.

Choice D is wrong because a referral for respite care services is not necessary for a client who has schizophrenia unless they also have a caregiver who needs temporary relief from their caregiving duties. Respite care services provide short-term care for clients who are dependent on others for their daily needs.
