A nurse is assisting in the care of a client. Nurses' Notes 2000:

Client presents to emergency department and states, "I have been assaulted." Client was immediately placed in a treatment room.

2015:

"Client states they were out with friends this evening and had "a little too much to drink." Client states that they fell asleep at their friend's house and when they woke up all of their clothes were off and their genitals were sore. The client states, "I think someone had sex with me, but I don't remember anything." Client reports history of depression. Client is a full-time college student who lives with roommates. Client admits to drinking socially but denies illicit drug use and tobacco use.

Which of the following interventions should the nurse plan to implement?

Select all that apply.

A.If the client is independent, give them privacy to bathe, if they prefer. If leaving a client unattended, check on them every 5 minutes or more frequently as needed. Ensure the client knows how to use safety items such as shower chairs and grab bars.

B.Adding bath oil to the water after the client is in the tub can create a slippery surface, increasing the risk of falls. Bath oil should be added before the client enters the tub or avoided if there is a risk of slipping.

C.Draining the tub water before the client gets out helps prevent slips and falls that can occur if the client attempts to exit the tub while the water is still present. This practice enhances safety by reducing the risk of accidents.

D.Tub baths or very warm showers can lead to a person feeling faint, nauseous, or tired. Baths should not last longer than 20 minutes and should be discontinued at the first sign of patient discomfort, weakness, or complaints of feeling faint.

Promoting trust involves actions that build a sense of trust and rapport between the nurse and the client. In this scenario, the nurse recognizes the client's basic need for food and responds to it promptly and compassionately. By interrupting the bath to address the client's hunger, the nurse demonstrates attentiveness and care, which helps establish trust between the nurse and the client.

Countertransference refers to the nurse's emotional reaction or response to the client, which may be based on the nurse's personal experiences or unresolved issues. It does not apply to the nurse's action of obtaining a meal for the client.

Veracity refers to truthfulness and honesty. While the nurse's action can be seen as honest and caring, it does not specifically relate to the concept of veracity.

Boundary crossing refers to a situation where the nurse exceeds the established professional boundaries with the client. In this scenario, the nurse's action of obtaining a meal for the client can be seen as a minor deviation from the routine care but is not considered a significant boundary crossing.
