The nurse is providing lifestyle change education for a client to slow the progression of coronary artery disease. Which statement(s) made by the client should the nurse recognize as needing additional education? (Select all that apply.)

Choice A: Assigning the UAP to provide care for another client and assume full care of the client is not an action that the nurse should take, as this is unnecessary and inefficient. The UAP can safely assist the client with influenza if they follow proper infection control measures. This is an incorrect choice.

Choice B: Reviewing the need for the UAP to wear a face mask while in close contact with the client is an action that the nurse should take, as this can protect the UAP and others from droplet transmission of influenza. This is a standard precaution that should be reinforced by the nurse. Therefore, this is the correct choice.

Choice C: Instructing the UAP to apply a fitted respirator mask before entering the client's room is not an action that the nurse should take, as this is not indicated for a client with influenza. A respirator mask is required for airborne transmission, not droplet transmission. This is another incorrect choice.

Choice D: Directing the UAP to notify the nurse of any changes in the client's respiratory status is not an action that the nurse should take, as this is a general instruction that does not address the specific issue of infection control. This is another incorrect choice.

Choice B is correct because weight management is an important factor in preventing and controlling hypertension. Taking daily walks for thirty minutes can help reduce weight and lower blood pressure.

Choice C is correct because salt substitutes can help with maintaining a healthy diet by reducing sodium intake. Sodium intake is associated with increased blood pressure and should be limited to less than 2,300 mg per day.

Choice E is correct because sodium intake can be regulated by rinsing canned foods in water. Canned foods often contain high amounts of sodium as a preservative and rinsing them can remove some of the excess sodium.

Choice F is correct because uncontrolled hypertension can lead to renal damage. Hypertension can cause damage to the blood vessels and impair the function of the kidneys, leading to chronic kidney disease or failure.

Choice A is incorrect because alcohol consumption can produce vascular changes that increase blood pressure. Alcohol intake should be limited to no more than one drink per day for women and two drinks per day for men.

Choice D is incorrect because blood pressure readings should not be taken at noontime. Blood pressure readings should be taken at the same time each day, preferably in the morning before breakfast or in the evening before dinner.
