A patient is admitted with a stroke. The outcome of this disorder is uncertain, but the patient is unable to move the right arm and leg. The nurse starts passive range-of-motion (ROM) exercises. Which finding Indicates successful goal achievement?

A) Tanning beds are much safer than lying in the sun: This statement is inaccurate. Tanning beds can actually be more harmful than sun exposure, as they expose the skin to concentrated ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which increases the risk of skin cancer, premature aging, and other skin damage. Health promotion teaching should focus on the dangers of tanning and emphasize safe sun practices, such as using sunscreen and avoiding tanning beds.

B) "Share piercing needles only with close friends you trust": This statement is dangerous and misleading. Sharing needles for piercings or tattoos, regardless of trust, can transmit bloodborne infections such as HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. The nurse should emphasize the importance of using sterilized, single-use needles and ensuring proper hygiene to prevent infections.

C) Your need for sleep will increase during periods of growth: This statement is accurate. Adolescents experience significant physical and cognitive growth, which increases their need for sleep. The nurse should encourage adolescents to prioritize adequate sleep, as it is essential for physical development, emotional well-being, and overall health.

D) "Limit your caloric intake to avoid becoming overweight": While maintaining a balanced diet is important, the focus should not be solely on limiting caloric intake. Adolescents are in a period of rapid growth and development, and their nutritional needs are higher. Health promotion should emphasize eating a balanced diet with appropriate portions of nutrients rather than focusing on restricting calories.

A) A nurse who works for an insurance company and collects urine samples from clients who have HIV: While this nurse may interact with clients who have HIV, collecting urine samples does not typically pose a significant risk for HIV transmission. HIV is not transmitted through urine, and the nurse would not be in direct contact with blood or bodily fluids that present a risk.

B) A personal trainer who works with a client who has HIV: A personal trainer is at low risk for contracting HIV while working with a client who has the virus, provided there is no direct exposure to blood or open wounds. HIV is transmitted through specific bodily fluids such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk, and not through casual contact or physical activity like exercise.
C) A phlebotomist who collects blood from clients who have HIV: A phlebotomist is at the greatest risk of contracting HIV because they handle blood directly. If proper precautions, such as gloves and safe needle handling, are not followed, there is an increased risk of exposure to HIV-infected blood. Occupational exposure to blood is one of the most significant routes of HIV transmission in healthcare settings.

D) An occupational therapist who works with a client who has HIV: An occupational therapist working with a client who has HIV is at a low risk of contracting HIV, provided the therapist does not come into direct contact with blood or other potentially infectious bodily fluids. Occupational therapy generally involves helping clients with physical or cognitive tasks and does not typically present a risk for HIV transmission unless there is a breach in infection control practices.
