A. Place the drink where the client can reach from her bed
Placing the drink where the client can easily reach it encourages regular fluid intake. Accessibility is key for clients who may be feeling weak or fatigued, especially when dealing with symptoms of illness like fever and cough. Ensuring that fluids are within reach minimizes barriers to drinking and supports better hydration efforts.
B. Encourage drinks with high sugar content
Drinks with high sugar content are not ideal for promoting adequate fluid intake. High sugar content can worsen symptoms like nausea or dehydration and may lead to increased thirst or gastrointestinal upset, which is counterproductive to encouraging fluid intake. Offering fluids with balanced electrolytes and moderate sugar content is more beneficial.
C. Only offer water or other clear drink
Offering only water or clear drinks can be too restrictive and may not meet the client's preferences or needs. While clear liquids are appropriate, incorporating a variety of fluids can improve hydration and patient satisfaction. It is beneficial to offer options that the client might find appealing.
D. Ask the client what her favorite drink is
Asking the client for her favorite drink engages her in the decision-making process and increases the likelihood of her consuming more fluids. Personal preferences can significantly affect fluid intake, and offering drinks she likes can help in achieving adequate hydration.
E. Offer both hot and cold drinks
Offering both hot and cold drinks can cater to the client’s preferences and provide comfort, which may encourage her to drink more fluids. Variety in temperature can make drinking fluids more appealing, especially if the client is feeling unwell or has specific preferences.
F. Suggest popular drinks like coffee or soda
Suggesting coffee or soda is not recommended due to their diuretic effects and potential for dehydration. Coffee and soda can also interfere with electrolyte balance and are generally not suitable for hydration in a clinical setting where the goal is to address fluid volume deficit

A. Documenting the client's loss of memory is important for ongoing assessment, but it is not the immediate action to take when the client is confused about the day of the week.
B. Reminding the client of the day of the week is a direct intervention to help orient the client, which is a primary approach for managing acute confusion or disorientation.
C. Notifying the family of the change in the client’s condition may be necessary if confusion persists or worsens, but initial steps should focus on immediate management of the confusion.
D. Encouraging the client to rest is a general supportive action but does not address the specific issue of confusion about the day of the week.
