A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a parent of a child who has asthma about the administration of montelukast. Which of the following statements by the parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. Inspect the incision of a client who is postoperative following a leg amputation is incorrect. Inspecting an incision requires clinical assessment to identify signs of infection, dehiscence, or other complications, which should be performed by a licensed nurse.

B. Evaluate the need to suction the airway of a client who has a new tracheostomy is incorrect. Suctioning the airway of a client with a tracheostomy is a skilled task that requires assessment of the airway and airway management, which should be performed by a nurse.

C. Complete postmortem care for a client who has died is correct. Postmortem care, such as cleaning and preparing the body, is a task that can be delegated to an AP. The AP should not be involved in clinical assessments but can perform routine care under supervision.

D. Feed a client who has difficulty swallowing liquids following a stroke is incorrect. Feeding a client with swallowing difficulties requires careful monitoring and risk assessment for aspiration, which is outside the scope of tasks that can be delegated to an AP without proper training.

A. Instructing the client to hold the drainage bag at waist height when ambulating is incorrect. The drainage bag should always be kept below the level of the bladder to prevent urine backflow, which can lead to infections (catheter-associated urinary tract infections - CAUTIs).

B. Coiling the tubing on the bed above the collection bag is incorrect. Tubing should be secured below bladder level without kinks or loops to allow for continuous urine drainage and prevent urinary stasis and infection.

C. Collecting a sterile specimen from the urinary drainage bag is incorrect. Urine in the drainage bag is not sterile and may contain bacteria, leading to inaccurate results. A specimen should be collected from the designated port on the catheter tubing using aseptic technique.

D. Securing the tubing with adhesive tape to the lower abdomen is correct. For male clients, securing the catheter to the lower abdomen prevents urethral trauma and tension. For female clients, the catheter is typically secured to the inner thigh to minimize movement and irritation.
