Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

A. Investigating home care services covered by insurance is not the primary focus of a nurse preparing for an interprofessional meeting.
B. Developing a nutritional teaching plan, while beneficial, is more specific to nursing care and may not require input from the entire interprofessional team.
C. Creating a collaborative plan of care is a goal of the meeting itself rather than an individual preparation task.
D. Collecting data on the client’s required assistance level provides valuable input on the client’s current functional status, enabling a more comprehensive team discussion and planning for appropriate interventions.

A client who has heart failure and has gained 1 kg (2.2 lb) in the last 48 hr D. A client who has a pressure ulcer on the left heel that has progressed from stage II to stage III

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Paranoia in a client with dementia requires monitoring and interventions for safety but is not immediately life-threatening.
B. Itching after receiving cefaclor (a cephalosporin antibiotic) indicates a possible allergic reaction. This can progress rapidly to anaphylaxis, making it the highest priority to report immediately.
C. A 1 kg weight gain in 48 hours in a client with heart failure is significant and should be reported, but it is not as urgent as a potential allergic reaction.
D. A pressure ulcer progressing from stage II to stage III requires timely intervention but does not present the immediate risk to life that an allergic reaction does.
