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?

When a central venous catheter (CVC) is inserted, it is essential to confirm proper catheter placement to ensure safe and effective administration of TPN and other medications. A chest x-ray is the gold standard method to verify the correct positioning of the CVC tip. It helps determine if the catheter is appropriately positioned in the superior vena cava or another desired location, which minimizes the risk of complications such as pneumothorax or improper medication delivery.

The other options listed are not appropriate actions for the nurse to take in this situation:

1. Verifying the amount of TPN solution the client is receiving every 4 hours is a task related to ongoing monitoring of TPN administration, but it is not directly related to the preparation of the client for CVC insertion.
2. Using clean technique when changing the catheter dressing is not appropriate for CVC insertion. Sterile technique is required during the insertion of a CVC to minimize the risk of infection.
3. Placing the client in Sims' position is not the appropriate position for CVC insertion. The client is typically placed in a supine or Trendelenburg position during the procedure to facilitate access to the central venous system.

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.
