An unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) removes isolation attire before leaving the room of a client who requires droplet precautions. Which action should the PN take?

A client with continuous urinary bladder irrigation via a 3-way catheter: This task requires specialized knowledge and skill to ensure proper management of the irrigation process, monitoring for complications, and adjusting the irrigation rate as needed. It falls within the scope of practice of the PN, who has the necessary training and expertise.
B. A client with urinary urgency and incontinence who is asking for a bedpan: This task can be safely and appropriately assigned to the UAP. Assisting the client with using a bedpan for voiding is a basic care task that does not require specialized nursing knowledge or skills.
C. A client with a full urinary bedside drainage unit after receiving a diuretic: Emptying a full urinary bedside drainage unit is a task that can be assigned to the UAP. It involves routine emptying and documentation of the drainage bag and does not require specialized nursing knowledge or skills.
D. A client with paraplegia who needs a urinary condom-catheter change: This task requires specialized knowledge and skill to perform a sterile procedure, ensure proper placement and securement of the condom catheter, and assess for any complications. It falls within the scope of practice of the PN, who has the necessary training and expertise.

the practical nurse (PN) should engage in regular contact with the client who demonstrates an inability to communicate effectively. Regular contact helps establish a therapeutic relationship and provides opportunities for observation and assessment of the client's needs and behavior. It also helps the PN to build trust with the client over time.
The other options listed are not appropriate methods for interacting with a client with psychosis who has difficulty communicating effectively:
A. Discouraging group activities: Group activities can be beneficial for individuals with psychosis as they provide opportunities for social interaction, skill-building, and support. It is important to encourage participation in appropriate group activities that are tailored to the client's needs and abilities.
C. Touching the client when speaking: Touching the client without their consent may be perceived as invasive or threatening, especially for individuals with psychosis who may already have difficulties with sensory processing or boundaries. It is important to respect the client's personal space and communicate through verbal means, maintaining a respectful and
non-intrusive approach.
D. Establishing a no-harm contract: No-harm contracts are typically used in the context of suicidal or self-harming behaviors to promote safety and identify support systems. While safety is important, it is not directly related to the communication difficulties associated with psychosis. Instead, the focus should be on developing a therapeutic relationship and finding effective means of communication with the client.
