A nurse is discussing the plan of care of a client who is 4 hr postoperative and has a urostomy with assistive personnel.

Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the discussion?

Explanation

B. Make a schedule for daily task.

Creating a schedule of daily tasks can provide structure and routine for individuals with Alzheimer's disease. This helps reduce confusion and frustration by providing a sense of familiarity and predictability. The schedule should be displayed in a visible location and include activities such as meals, personal care, medication administration, and any recreational or therapeutic activities. Following the schedule can help the client feel more oriented and decrease their frustration levels.

Limiting the use of familiar objects in (option A) should not be included because it may further increase frustration and disorientation. Familiar objects can provide comfort and a sense of security for individuals with Alzheimer's disease.

Asking questions that require more than one answer in (option C) should not be included because it can be overwhelming and confusing for someone with Alzheimer's disease. It is best to ask simple, straightforward questions to facilitate communication and comprehension.

Having several family members visit daily in (option D) should not be included because it may cause agitation and overstimulation for the client. It is important to maintain a calm and predictable environment, limiting the number of visitors and ensuring they are familiar to the client.
Therefore, the most appropriate intervention for the nurse to include is making a schedule of daily tasks (option B).

Budesonide is a corticosteroid inhaler used for long-term management of asthma. It helps to reduce inflammation and prevent asthma symptoms. Rinsing the mouth and gargling with water after using a corticosteroid inhaler can help reduce the risk of developing oral thrush, a fungal infection.

The other statements are incorrect and indicate a misunderstanding of the teaching: "I will take my inhaler treatment before each meal and at bedtime": Budesonide is not typically used before meals or at bedtime. It is usually taken on a regular schedule, as prescribed by the healthcare provider, to provide long-term control of asthma symptoms.

Using the inhaler before exercising is important because physical activity can trigger asthma symptoms in some individuals. By using the inhaler before exercise, the client can help prevent exercise-induced asthma symptoms. However, this depends on the degree of difficulty of the exercise.

"I should use my inhaler when I have an asthma attack": Budesonide is not a rescue inhaler for immediate relief of asthma symptoms during an asthma attack. It is a controller medication meant to be used regularly to prevent symptoms from occurring.
