A nurse is assisting with the discharge of an older adult client who has early onset dementiaand lives with their adult child who works full time Which of the following resources should thenurse recommend to the family to assist with the client's care?

Fidelity, also known as loyalty or faithfulness, refers to the nurse's commitment to keeping promises and fulfilling their responsibilities to the client. By promising to walk with the client in the outdoor courtyard each day, the nurse is demonstrating fidelity by maintaining their commitment to the client's well-being and providing the support needed to alleviate anxiety.

Autonomy refers to the client's right to make decisions about their own care and treatment. While the nurse's promise supports the client's autonomy by accommodating their preference for exercising in the courtyard, it is not the principle being demonstrated by the nurse.

Justice refers to fairness and equality in healthcare, ensuring equitable treatment and distribution of resources. While justice is an important ethical principle, it is not directly applicable in this situation.

Nonmaleficence is the principle of doing no harm and taking actions to prevent harm to the client. While the nurse's promise of walking with the client aligns with the goal of reducing anxiety, it is not specifically related to preventing harm.

Wearing a medical identification wristband is important for children with chronic conditions such as cystic fibrosis. It helps alert others, including healthcare providers, about the child's condition in case of emergencies. The wristband can provide vital information about the child's diagnosis, treatment needs, and emergency contacts, ensuring appropriate care and timely interventions.

The other options mentioned are not appropriate or necessary for the care of a child with cystic fibrosis:

A- It is important to involve the child to an age-appropriate extent in decision-making about their treatment. Encouraging the child to participate in their own care and treatment decisions can promote their independence and self-management skills.

B- The influenza vaccine is generally recommended for children with cystic fibrosis, as they are at increased risk of respiratory infections. The vaccine helps protect against influenza and its potential complications. Therefore, the nurse should emphasize the importance of annual influenza vaccination for the child.

D- Homeschooling may not be necessary solely based on the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. The decision regarding the child's education should be made based on their individual needs, abilities, and preferences, in consultation with the child's healthcare team and educational professionals.
