A nurse is planning to discharge a client who has terminal cancer and suggests that the family might benefit from respite services. When the client's partner asks how this service can help, which of the following responses by the nurse is appropriate?

Choice A reason: A client who had a recent stroke and is showing manifestations of depression needs an interdisciplinary conference because they require a comprehensive and coordinated plan of care that involves multiple disciplines, such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, social work, and mental health services.

Choice B reason: A client whose provider is unhappy with the nursing care does not need an interdisciplinary conference, but rather a feedback and evaluation session with the nurse manager and the provider to address the issues and improve the quality of care.

Choice C reason: A client whose MRI results have not been made available after 2 days does not need an interdisciplinary conference, but rather a follow-up with the radiology department and the provider to expedite the results and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.

Choice D reason: A client whose partner requests that the client be moved to a private room does not need an interdisciplinary conference, but rather a discussion with the admission office and the partner to explore the availability and cost of a private room and the benefits and risks of transferring the client.

Choice A reason: This is not the correct choice because an increase in serosanguineous exudate (a mixture of blood and clear fluid) from a client's wound indicates infection, inflammation, or trauma to the wound. This is a sign of wound deterioration, not healing.

Choice B reason: This is the correct choice because a deep red color on the center of a client's wound indicates granulation tissue, which is new tissue that forms during the healing process. Granulation tissue fills the wound bed and provides a foundation for epithelialization (the growth of new skin over the wound).

Choice C reason: This is not the correct choice because erythema (redness) on the skin surrounding a client's wound indicates irritation, inflammation, or infection of the skin. This is a sign of wound complication, not healing.

Choice D reason: This is not the correct choice because inflammation on the tissue edges of a client's wound indicates infection, trauma, or necrosis (death) of the tissue. This is a sign of wound impairment, not healing.
