A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who needs to increase vitamin C intake to promote wound healing. Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend as the best source of vitamin C?

Choice A reason: A client's dissatisfaction with the temperature of the meals is not an incident that requires a report. The nurse should inform the dietary staff and try to accommodate the client's preferences.

Choice B reason: A client's burns from a heating pad is an incident that requires a report. The nurse should document the cause, extent, and treatment of the burns, as well as the client's response and any actions taken to prevent recurrence.

Choice C reason: A client's disorientation and fall out of bed is an incident that requires a report. The nurse should document the circumstances, injuries, and interventions related to the fall, as well as the client's response and any changes in the plan of care.

Choice D reason: A client's inability to afford the physical therapy is not an incident that requires a report. The nurse should refer the client to a social worker or a financial counselor who can assist with finding resources and options.

Choice E reason: A client's visitor's dizziness and fainting in the client's room is an incident that requires a report. The nurse should document the event, the visitor's condition, and any actions taken to assist the visitor.

Choice A reason: Gloves are the first piece of personal protective equipment that the nurse should remove, as they are the most contaminated and can transfer microorganisms to other surfaces. The nurse should remove the gloves by grasping the outside of one glove at the wrist and pulling it off inside out, then holding it in the gloved hand and sliding the fingers of the ungloved hand under the other glove at the wrist and pulling it off inside out over the first glove. The nurse should then discard the gloves in a biohazard container.

Choice B reason: Goggles are the second piece of personal protective equipment that the nurse should remove, as they can protect the eyes from splashes or droplets. The nurse should remove the goggles by grasping the earpieces or headband and lifting them away from the face. The nurse should then discard the goggles in a designated receptacle or place them in a designated area for reprocessing.

Choice C reason: Gown is the third piece of personal protective equipment that the nurse should remove, as it can protect the clothing and skin from contamination. The nurse should remove the gown by untying the neck and waist ties and pulling the gown away from the neck and shoulders, touching only the inside of the gown. The nurse should then turn the gown inside out, fold or roll it into a bundle, and discard it in a biohazard container.

Choice D reason: Mask is the last piece of personal protective equipment that the nurse should remove, as it can protect the nose and mouth from inhalation of microorganisms. The nurse should remove the mask by grasping the bottom ties or elastics and then the top ties or elastics and pulling the mask away from the face. The nurse should then discard the mask in a biohazard container.
