A nurse is reviewing a client's medication list. Which medication has been indicated for improvement in cognitive functioning in mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease?

A. Arranging for individual therapy sessions: While individual therapy can be beneficial for clients with bulimia, it is not the sole intervention and typically part of a broader treatment plan. Therapy should focus on cognitive-behavioral strategies to address eating behaviors and underlying emotional issues.

B. Encouraging the client to keep a food diary: Keeping a food diary is a common therapeutic intervention for bulimia. It helps clients become more aware of their eating patterns and triggers for binge eating and purging behaviors. It also assists in identifying emotional and situational triggers that can be addressed in therapy.

C. Administering a medication to suppress the client's appetite: Appetite suppressants are not typically used in the treatment of bulimia. The focus is on addressing the underlying psychological issues and behaviors rather than suppressing appetite, as bulimia involves cycles of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors like vomiting or laxative use.

D. Scheduling daily weigh-ins for the client: Daily weigh-ins can contribute to increased anxiety and obsession with weight, which may exacerbate bulimic behaviors. Therapeutic interventions for bulimia should focus on normalizing eating patterns and addressing the psychological aspects of the disorder rather than focusing on weight.

A. "Why did you feel you needed to do that at this time?": This response might come off as insensitive or judgmental. It could imply that the parents made an inappropriate decision without acknowledging their difficult situation.

B. "It must be frustrating for you to have to cancel an activity your son enjoyed.": This response validates the parents' feelings and acknowledges the emotional difficulty of making such a decision. It shows empathy and understanding of their situation.

C. "You never know. He could be ready for baseball by the spring.": This response offers false hope and may not be realistic given the child’s terminal illness. It could undermine the parents’ acceptance of the situation.

D. "Baseball can be a dangerous sport for children anyway.": This response dismisses the parents' feelings and does not acknowledge the real reason for canceling the activity. It is insensitive to the gravity of their situation.
