A nurse is preparing to remove an NG tube for a client who is postoperative following colon surgery. In which order should the nurse perform the following steps? (Move the steps, placing them in the order of performance. Use all the steps.)

A) Place an identification tag on the outside of the client's shroud. - This is an important step in maintaining proper identification of the deceased individual.
B) Remove the client's dentures and give them to the client's family. - Dentures should be left in place unless requested by the family, as they are considered part of the deceased individual's personal belongings.
C) Wear sterile gloves when cleaning the client's body. - Sterile gloves are not necessary for postmortem care unless there are specific infection control concerns.
D) Ask the assistive personnel to document the client's time of death. - Documenting the time of death is typically the responsibility of the nurse or provider, not the assistive personnel.

A) "I'm glad to have the opportunity to choose what kind of care I receive while I still can." - This statement reflects an understanding of the purpose of advance directives, which is to allow individuals to express their wishes for care while they are still able to do so.
B) "If I want life support, I'll need to sign a separate consent form first." - This statement does not accurately reflect the purpose or process of advance directives.
C) "I can't change my mind about the care I will receive once I sign my living will." - Advance directives can be updated or revoked at any time as long as the individual is of sound mind and able to make decisions.

D) "Once I fill out my living will, there will be a 1-month delay before it is legally binding." - Advance directives typically become legally effective as soon as they are completed and signed, without a waiting period.
