Answer and Explanation

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

A. Hand hygiene is essential to prevent the transmission of microorganisms and maintain infection control standards.
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.
D. Assessing the skin around the face helps identify any abnormalities, irritation, or contraindications to applying the face mask, such as open wounds or dermatitis.
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.
F. Brushing the client's teeth is not typically performed before applying a face mask unless there are specific clinical indications or the client requests oral care. However, oral care may be performed as part of routine hygiene practices or if the client is intubated and oral hygiene is necessary.
