Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,B,D,E,G

B. Verifying the client's identity using two unique identifiers, such as name and date of birth, helps prevent errors and ensures that the intervention is performed on the correct individual.

E. Wearing gloves helps prevent the transmission of microorganisms and protects both the nurse and the client during the application of the face mask.
G. Assessing respiratory function helps determine the client's need for the face mask and ensures that it is applied appropriately based on the client's respiratory status and needs.
C. While it's important to address the client's toileting needs, determining whether the client needs to go to the bathroom is not directly related to the application of a face mask unless there are specific concerns about the client's comfort or ability to tolerate the mask.

However, oral care may be performed as part of routine hygiene practices or if the client is intubated and oral hygiene is necessary.
