A nurse is teaching a client who has AIDS and wishes to continue self-care at home despite living alone.
Which of the following actions by the nurse demonstrates client advocacy?
Tell the client to avoid places where there are large crowds of people.
Instruct the client to avoid eating raw vegetables.
Remind the client of the importance of medication adherence.
Initiate a referral for the client to a home health agency.
The Correct Answer is D
Initiate a referral for the client to a home health agency.
This action demonstrates client advocacy because it empowers the client to continue self-care at home while also providing them with additional support and resources through the home health agency.
Choice A is wrong because avoiding large crowds of people is a precautionary measure but does not demonstrate client advocacy.
Choice B is wrong because avoiding raw vegetables is a dietary recommendation but does not demonstrate client advocacy.
Choice C is wrong because reminding the client of the importance of medication adherence is important but does not demonstrate client advocacy.
