Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is {"dropdown-group-1":"B","dropdown-group-2":"A"}

Neglect is the most appropriate option because the client’s inability to access the restroom independently and lack of adequate personal care, as indicated by poor hygiene, tangled hair, matted nails, and untreated wounds, are signs of neglect. Additionally, the client is being kept bedridden against her will, which points to a lack of adequate care and respect for her autonomy, further supporting neglect.

Adult Protective Services (APS) is the proper agency to contact when there are concerns about elder neglect or abuse. APS is responsible for investigating suspected abuse, neglect, and exploitation of vulnerable adults.

A. Apply a petroleum jelly to the child's nose and lips. B. Use a topical lidocaine analgesic for cracked lips. C. Ask the mother what she usually uses on the child's lips and nose. D. Use a water soluble lubricant on affected oral and nasal mucosa.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Petroleum jelly should not be used around the nose of a toddler receiving oxygen due to the risk of aspiration and the potential for oxygen to ignite the jelly.

B. Topical lidocaine is not appropriate for cracked lips, as it can cause numbness and possibly interfere with the child's ability to protect their airway.

C. Asking the mother is a good communication approach, but the nurse should also take immediate action to address the dryness using an appropriate lubricant.

D. Use a water-soluble lubricant on affected oral and nasal mucosa is the most appropriate intervention, as petroleum jelly can be harmful if inhaled, and a water-soluble lubricant is safer for use in the nasal and oral areas, especially in young children.
