Any stereotyping, prejudice, or discrimination against the older adult, or in fact any age group is defined as what:

A. Teach the mother about symptoms of UTI is not the nurse's first priority. While educating the mother about UTIs is important, the presence of bruises in the genital and rectal areas raises immediate concern for potential sexual abuse, which requires immediate action to ensure the child's safety.
B. Report suspected sexual abuse to protective services is the nurse's first priority. Any signs of physical trauma or injury in areas typically covered by clothing, such as the genital and rectal areas, must be reported immediately. The nurse is a mandated reporter and is legally required to report any suspected abuse. Ensuring the safety of the child is paramount, and protective services will investigate the situation and take appropriate steps.
C. Interview mother for child’s health history may be necessary later, but at this moment, the immediate concern is the possibility of sexual abuse. The nurse should report the findings to the appropriate authorities before discussing the situation further with the mother.
D. Obtain a urine sample to confirm UTI is important for diagnosing the UTI but does not address the immediate concern regarding possible abuse. The child’s safety and well-being must be prioritized, and reporting the possible abuse is more urgent than confirming the UTI at this point.

A. Avoidance of physical contact is not the priority intervention for a patient with delirium. While you may want to be gentle and avoid unnecessary contact, the priority is to ensure the patient's safety and provide support in a way that helps prevent injury, confusion, or further agitation.
B. Application of wrist and ankle restraints is not recommended unless absolutely necessary for patient safety (such as if the patient is at risk of harming themselves or others). Restraints should be a last resort and only used when all other interventions have failed.
C. Careful observation and supervision is the priority nursing intervention for a patient with delirium. Due to fluctuating levels of consciousness and altered perception, the patient is at risk for injury (e.g., falling, wandering). Close observation helps ensure the patient's safety and provides an opportunity to intervene if the condition worsens.
D. High level of sensory input is generally not recommended for patients with delirium, as it may increase confusion and agitation. Instead, providing a calm, quiet environment with minimal distractions is typically preferred.
