A nurse is consulting a pharmacological reference about medication compatibility prior to administering warfarin to a client.
Which of the following medications should the nurse identify as being incompatible with warfarin?

Choice A rationale:

The nurse should prioritize the client's concerns and engage in therapeutic communication. By asking the client about their concerns, the nurse demonstrates empathy and encourages the client to express their feelings, which can help address any fears or anxieties related to using a bedpan. This approach promotes trust and allows the nurse to provide appropriate support and education to the client.

Choice B rationale:

This option does not address the client's concerns about using a bedpan. Instructing the client to use nearby furniture does not address the client's emotional needs or provide appropriate assistance for the current situation.

Choice C rationale:

This response is authoritarian and does not respect the client's autonomy or emotional state. It may cause the client to feel powerless and anxious, which can negatively impact the nurse-client relationship.

Choice D rationale:

Involving the physical therapist in this situation is unnecessary and does not address the client's immediate concern. It also does not promote open communication between the nurse and the client about the client's feelings regarding using a bedpan.
