A nurse is collecting data from a client who is 2 days postpartum. The client tells the nurse she cannot afford to pay for baby formula. The nurse should refer the client to which of the following members of the interprofessional team?

1. 1. Request that the client's family bring the client's eyeglasses from home: This is important to ensure that the client has optimal vision and can see clearly, considering their visual loss. Having their eyeglasses will improve their ability to communicate and understand their surroundings.
   2. Reorient the client often: Reorientation is important for clients who may be disoriented due to their medical condition or unfamiliar environment. Regularly reminding the client of their location, date, and situation can help them maintain orientation.
   3. Acknowledge the client's feelings: Acknowledging and validating the client's feelings can help establish rapport and promote a therapeutic relationship. It shows empathy and understanding, which can contribute to the client's overall well-being.
   4. Provide the client with information about what to expect during their care: Providing information to the client about their care helps promote autonomy and active participation in their own healthcare. It can reduce anxiety and improve the client's overall experience.
   5. Write the full date on the client's whiteboard: Clearly documenting the full date on the client's whiteboard helps the client stay oriented to the current date and time.
   6. Maintain a well-lit environment: Ensuring a well-lit environment is important, especially for clients with visual impairment. Sufficient lighting can enhance the client's ability to see and navigate their surroundings.

It's worth noting that while asking the client's partner to stay with the client as much as possible may be beneficial, it may not always be feasible or within the nurse's control. Additionally, requesting the client to have the same caregivers with every shift may not be possible due to staffing constraints.

Applying pressure with gauze helps to control bleeding and promote clotting. The other statements are not accurate or appropriate for circumcision care: "I will apply antibiotic ointment to my baby's penis" is not recommended for Plastibell circumcision. The use of antibiotic ointment is not typically necessary or recommended unless specifically advised by the healthcare provider.

"I will wipe away yellow crusts that form around the incision" should not be done as it may disrupt the healing process. Yellow crusts are a normal part of the healing process and should be left undisturbed.

"I will make sure that my baby's diaper is applied snugly" is unrelated to circumcision care. While proper diapering is important for maintaining hygiene, it does not specifically address the care of the circumcision site.
