A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about the purpose of interdisciplinary conferences. The nurse should identify that which of the following clients needs an interdisciplinary conference?

Choice A reason: This is not the information that the nurse should include in the change-of-shift report. The time the client received his last dose of pain medication is not relevant to the transfer to the rehabilitation facility. The nurse should document the pain medication administration in the medication record and communicate it to the receiving nurse.

Choice B reason: This is the information that the nurse should include in the change-of-shift report. The steps to follow when providing wound care are important to ensure the continuity and quality of care for the client. The nurse should explain the type, location, and condition of the wound, the dressing materials and frequency, and any signs of infection or complications.

Choice C reason: This is not the information that the nurse should include in the change-of-shift report. The client's preferred time for bathing is not essential to the transfer to the rehabilitation facility. The nurse should respect the client's preferences and routines, but they are not a priority for the report.

Choice D reason: This is not the information that the nurse should include in the change-of-shift report. The belief that the client has a difficult relationship with his son is not based on facts and may be biased or inaccurate. The nurse should avoid making assumptions or judgments about the client's family dynamics and focus on the objective data and the client's needs.

Choice A reason: Asking the client's daughter to interpret the conversation is not a correct action, as it may compromise the accuracy and confidentiality of the information. The nurse should not use family members or friends as interpreters, as they may have biases, emotions, or personal agendas that could interfere with the communication.

Choice B reason: Talking loudly while facing the client is not a correct action, as it may be perceived as rude or aggressive by the client. The nurse should not assume that the client can understand them better by increasing the volume or using gestures, as these may have different meanings in different cultures.

Choice C reason: Accessing a language line to interpret what is being said is the correct action, as it ensures that the communication is clear, accurate, and respectful. The nurse should use a qualified interpreter who is familiar with the medical terminology and the cultural context of the client.

Choice D reason: Using a bilingual dictionary to translate is not a correct action, as it may be time-consuming and ineffective. The nurse should not rely on a dictionary or a translation app, as they may not capture the nuances or expressions of the language. The nurse should also avoid using medical jargon or slang that may not be understood by the client.
