A nurse is reviewing the employee health program for new employees. Which of the following diagnostic assessments should the nurse recommend for all new employees to screen for the presence of tuberculosis?

A. Prohibiting visitors is not necessary for clients with sealed internal radiation implants. Visitors should be allowed unless specific restrictions are required based on the type of radiation therapy.

B. While maintaining distance from the radiation source is important, there is no specific guideline stating a 3-foot distance. The nurse should follow institutional policies and radiation safety guidelines regarding proximity to the radiation source.

C. There is no need to maintain the client on bed rest for 72 hours after receiving a sealed

internal radiation device. The client should be encouraged to ambulate and perform activities of daily living as tolerated.

D. Requiring the client to wear a dosimeter badge allows healthcare providers to monitor the amount of radiation exposure received by the client and ensures that radiation safety protocols are followed.

A. Insisting the client use direct eye contact may be intimidating or uncomfortable for the client, especially in a mental health setting where individuals may have varying levels of comfort with eye contact.

B. Seating the client at such a distance may create a physical barrier and hinder effective communication between the nurse and the client.

C. Positioning the client's chair between the nurse's chair and the door may make the client feel trapped or uncomfortable, especially during a sensitive interview.

D. Leaning in slightly when speaking to the client demonstrates attentiveness and facilitates a sense of closeness and engagement in the conversation, which can help build rapport and trust.
