Correct Answer is B

Explanation

The nurse would question the discharge of a client to be cared for by the family if the client and family lack knowledge of the treatment regimen. It is important for the client and family to have a good understanding of the treatment regimen in order to provide safe and eﬀective care at home. The other options (The client will need sterile dressing changes, The client will be discharged with a feeding tube, and The client will be receiving IV medications by home health nurses) are not situations that would necessarily prevent discharge to be cared for by the family.

A. Outcome not met. The client is able to state one positive aspect by the end of the week. B. Outcome met. The client is able to state two positive aspects of therapy by week's end. C. Outcome incomplete. The client is not able to positively state anything about rehab. D. Outcome met. The client is able to state one positive aspect by the end of the week.
