A nurse is performing a skin assessment for a client who is on bedrest. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to prevent a pressure injury?

A. Insisting on direct eye contact may be uncomfortable or distressing for some clients, particularly those with certain mental health conditions or cultural backgrounds. It's important to respect the client's comfort level.

B. Seating the client too far away can create a sense of distance and may hinder effective communication. A closer seating arrangement facilitates rapport and engagement.

C. Positioning the client's chair between the nurse's chair and the door may make the client feel trapped or uncomfortable, especially if they have concerns about their safety or autonomy.

D. Leaning in slightly when speaking to the client demonstrates attentiveness and engagement. It can also convey a sense of confidentiality and respect for the client's space.

A. Holding the newborn in an en face position: This action promotes bonding between the mother and the newborn and is a positive interaction.

B. Asking the father to change the newborn's diaper: Involving the father in caregiving tasks fosters family involvement and bonding.

C. Viewing the newborn's actions to be uncooperative: This suggests a negative perception of the newborn's behavior, which could indicate potential issues with bonding or misunderstanding

infant cues, requiring the nurse's intervention.

D. Requesting the nurse take the newborn to the nursery so she can rest: While rest is important for the mother, separating the newborn from the mother could disrupt bonding and breastfeeding, so this action should be discussed further with the client to explore other options.
