For each potential provider's prescription, click to specify if the potential prescription is anticipated or contraindicated for the client:

A) Orange juice:
Orange juice is high in potassium, with one cup containing a significant amount of the nutrient. For clients who need to limit their potassium intake due to an electrolyte imbalance (such as in kidney disease or hyperkalemia), orange juice should be avoided or consumed in limited amounts.

B) Baked chicken breast:
Baked chicken breast is the lowest in potassium among the options provided. While chicken does contain some potassium, it is relatively low compared to fruits and vegetables. This makes it a better choice for clients needing to limit their potassium intake. Lean meats like chicken are often recommended for clients on a restricted potassium diet.

C) Sweet potato:
Sweet potatoes are very high in potassium, especially when compared to many other vegetables. A serving of sweet potato can contain a large amount of potassium, making it unsuitable for clients who need to manage their potassium levels.

D) Cantaloupe:
Cantaloupe is also high in potassium. A single serving can provide a substantial amount of potassium, which can be problematic for clients with electrolyte imbalances who need to limit their potassium intake.

A) Place the bedside table 2 feet away from the bed: This is not recommended for a client at risk for falls. The bedside table should be within reach of the client to avoid the need for excessive movement, which could increase the risk of a fall, especially if the client is unsteady or disoriented. Ideally, the bedside table should be placed within arm’s reach for convenience and safety.

B) Keep lighting in the home dim: Dim lighting increases the risk of falls by making it harder for the client to see obstacles and navigate safely. It is important to ensure that lighting is bright enough to illuminate walking areas, hallways, and other areas that might present a fall risk.

C) Place area rugs on slick floor surfaces: Area rugs on slick surfaces are hazardous as they can cause tripping or slipping, increasing the risk of a fall. It is best to remove rugs or ensure they are securely fastened to prevent them from sliding. Non-slip rugs or floor mats can be used, but they should not be placed on slick surfaces.

D) Move the client's bed to the main floor of the house: Moving the client's bed to the main floor is a good safety measure, especially if the client has difficulty navigating stairs. This reduces the need for the client to climb stairs, which can be dangerous and increase the risk of falls. Having the bed on the main floor ensures that the client can easily access their sleeping area without the risk of falling on stairs.
