What is the best goal for pain control in a client with rheumatoid arthritis?

Choice A reason: "Because it is easy to digest." is not the best response by the nurse. This is not a valid reason for giving protein supplements to a client with a bed sore. Protein supplements may or may not be easy to digest depending on the type and amount of protein and the client's digestive system. The ease of digestion is not the main goal of protein supplementation.

Choice B reason: "If you don't like it, you don't have to take it." is not the best response by the nurse. This is a dismissive and unprofessional response that does not address the client's question or concern. Protein supplements are prescribed for a reason and the client should be educated on the benefits and risks of taking or refusing them. The nurse should also respect the client's preferences and choices and offer alternatives if possible.

Choice C reason: "These supplements have nothing to do with your wound." is not the best response by the nurse. This is a false and misleading statement that contradicts the evidencebased practice of wound care. Protein supplements have a lot to do with wound healing as they provide the essential nutrients for tissue repair and regeneration. Protein deficiency can impair wound healing and increase the risk of infection and complications.

Choice D reason: "Protein has amino acids that promote wound healing." is the best response by the nurse. This is a factual and informative statement that explains the rationale for giving protein supplements to a client with a bed sore. Protein is composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks of cells and tissues. Amino acids are involved in various processes of wound healing, such as collagen synthesis, angiogenesis, and immune response. Protein supplementation can enhance wound healing and prevent protein malnutrition.

Choice A reason: Determine whether it is temporary or permanent is not the nurse's priority action for a client with compromised immunity, because it is not the most urgent and relevant. Determining whether the compromised immunity is temporary or permanent is an important assessment, but it should be done after ensuring the safety and infection prevention of the client. Compromised immunity can be temporary or permanent, depending on the cause, such as medication, disease, or genetic disorder.

Choice B reason: Take the client's vital signs every four hours is not the nurse's priority action for a client with compromised immunity, because it is not the most urgent and relevant. Taking the client's vital signs every four hours is an important monitoring, but it should be done after ensuring the safety and infection prevention of the client. Vital signs can indicate the general health status and the presence of infection or inflammation, such as fever, tachycardia, or hypotension.

Choice C reason: Teach the family members to receive the flu shot annually is not the nurse's priority action for a client with compromised immunity, because it is not the most urgent and relevant. Teaching the family members to receive the flu shot annually is an important education, but it should be done after ensuring the safety and infection prevention of the client. The flu shot is a vaccine that can protect the family members and the client from influenza, which can be a serious and potentially fatal infection for people with compromised immunity.

Choice D reason: Wash hands before entering the client's room is the nurse's priority action for a client with compromised immunity, because it is the most urgent and relevant. Washing hands before entering the client's room is a basic and essential infection prevention measure, which can protect the client from exposure to pathogens that can cause infection. People with compromised immunity have a weakened or impaired immune system, which makes them more susceptible and vulnerable to infection.
