Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Urinate after the specimen collection- Urinating after collecting the stool specimen does not affect the collection process.
B. Place 1.3 cm (0.5 in) of formed stool into a culture tube- The amount of stool needed for collection depends on the specific instructions provided, but typically, a small amount is sufficient.
C. Keep the specimen in a warm area- Stool specimens are usually kept at room temperature or refrigerated, depending on the specific requirements of the test.
D. Avoid placing toilet tissue in the bedpan after defecation- Placing toilet tissue in the bedpan can contaminate the stool specimen and affect the test results. Instructing the client to avoid doing so helps ensure the integrity of the sample.

A. "We will use an electric blanket to keep your partner warm." B. "Encourage your partner to eat three large meals each day." C. "Assume your partner can hear you, even if they do not respond." D. "Opioids will be restricted if your partner develops respiratory distress."

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A) "We will use an electric blanket to keep your partner warm." - While maintaining warmth is important, this statement does not address communication or understanding between the partner and the client.
B) "Encourage your partner to eat three large meals each day." - Encouraging large meals may not be appropriate for a client at end-of-life care, and this statement doesn't address communication either.
C) "Assume your partner can hear you, even if they do not respond." - This statement acknowledges the importance of communication and connection with the client, even if they are not responsive.

D) "Opioids will be restricted if your partner develops respiratory distress." - This statement may be relevant in certain contexts but is not as directly related to communication and support for the partner.
