A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has osteoporosis and a new prescription for alendronate. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A.

A. Adequate hydration helps maintain skin integrity and reduces the risk of pressure injuries by keeping the skin hydrated and resilient.

B. Moisturizing dry skin is important for overall skin health but may not directly prevent pressure injuries.

C. While maintaining a comfortable room environment is important for the client's overall well- being, a dehumidifier specifically may not directly prevent pressure injuries.

D. Donut ring pillows are not recommended for pressure injury prevention as they can actually increase pressure on vulnerable areas of the skin, leading to tissue damage.

A. Speaking directly into one of the client's ears may be ineffective if the client has bilateral hearing impairment or if the hearing impairment is not related to the ear anatomy.

B. Rephrasing sentences the client does not understand can help clarify communication and ensure the client receives necessary information.

C. Dropping voice volume at the end of sentences can make it difficult for the client to hear the entire message, especially if the client relies on lip-reading or amplification devices.

D. Exaggerating lip movements may not be helpful for all clients with hearing impairment and may not accurately convey the intended message. Instead, clear and natural lip movements should be used along with other communication strategies such as rephrasing sentences and facing the client directly.
