Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Allow donation of the patient’s organs. Organ donation can offer a sense of purpose and comfort to families by knowing their loved one’s organs may save lives.

B. View all of the injuries to the patient’s body: While families may want closure, viewing injuries could be distressing.

C. Donate the patient’s belongings to charity: This is unlikely to provide immediate comfort.

D. Plan the funeral before leaving the acute care facility: This is not an immediate priority and may add stress during a crisis.

A. "This small amount of bleeding is expected after the removal of polyps." B. "I will watch your husband very carefully to assess any further haemorrhage." C. "I will notify the primary care provider about this haemorrhage.” D. "Don't worry. This small amount of blood happens with these procedures."

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. "This small amount of bleeding is expected after the removal of polyps." Minor rectal bleeding is a common occurrence after polyp removal during a colonoscopy and generally does not indicate a complication. This reassurance helps alleviate the family’s concern.

B. "I will watch your husband very carefully to assess any further haemorrhage.": This could unnecessarily alarm the family.

C. "I will notify the primary care provider about this haemorrhage.": This overstates the concern, as slight bleeding is expected.

D. "Don't worry. This small amount of blood happens with these procedures.": This is dismissive and does not provide a professional explanation.
