A nurse is teaching a class about Piaget's stages of cognitive development. The nurse should instruct that object permanence develops during which of the following stages?

A. Document "impaired oxygenation" on the nursing care plan: While this may be appropriate based on assessment findings, it's premature to document without conducting a thorough assessment first.

B. Auscultate the chest for breath sounds: This is a critical component of assessing respiratory function, especially in a client with pneumonia, to identify abnormal breath sounds such as crackles or diminished breath sounds.

C. Collaborate with the client to form goals: Goal setting typically comes after assessment data is collected and analyzed.

D. Apply supplemental oxygen by face mask as needed: This action should be based on assessment findings indicating the need for oxygen therapy, not assumed without assessment.

A. "I will make exercise a part of my daily activities." This is a positive and correct statement. Regular exercise is an important component of a healthy lifestyle and should be encouraged.

B. "I should eat a diet high in fats but low in fiber." This statement is incorrect and indicates a misunderstanding of healthy dietary guidelines. A diet high in fats and low in fiber is not recommended for maintaining health and can lead to various health issues like obesity, heart disease, and digestive problems.

C. "I only have one glass of wine a day with dinner." This statement aligns with moderate alcohol consumption guidelines, which suggest that up to one glass of wine per day for women and two for men can be part of a healthy lifestyle.

D. "I will begin a smoking cessation program this week." This statement reflects a positive health choice. Quitting smoking is one of the most beneficial actions a person can take for their health, reducing risks for many diseases.
