A public health nurse is developing protocols to use in emergency shelters following a disaster. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include as a secondary prevention strategy for clients who survive a disaster?

The correct answer is Choice B because, "Clients receive Medicare benefits when eligible." Distributive justice is the ethical principle that resources should be allocated fairly among members of society. The outcome of clients receiving Medicare benefits when eligible is an example of distributive justice because it ensures that eligible clients have access to healthcare resources that are distributed fairly based on their need for them.

Choice A is wrong because, "Clients demonstrate completion of advance directives," is not the correct answer because it is an example of autonomy, which is the ethical principle that individuals have the right to make decisions about their own healthcare. Choice C is wrong because, "Clients verbalize their right to refuse treatment," is an example of informed consent, which is the ethical principle that individuals have the right to make decisions about their own healthcare based on accurate information. Choice D is wrong because, "Clients understand their right to confidentiality," is an example of confidentiality, which is the ethical principle that healthcare information should be kept private and secure.

The correct answer is Choice C because "You should limit your use of extension cords." Extension cords are a common source of electrical hazards and should be used only when necessary. The nurse should advise the client to use power strips with built-in circuit breakers instead of extension cords.

Choice A is wrong because, "You should pull on the cord when unplugging items," is not the correct answer as pulling on the cord can damage the cord and create a hazard. Choice B is wrong because, "You should cover electrical cords with an area rug," is not the correct answer as this can create a trip hazard. Choice D is wrong because, "You should secure extension cords with clear packing tape," is not the correct answer as this does not address the underlying issue of using extension cords unnecessarily.
