Correct Answer is D

No explanation

A. Refer the client to a dietitian for nutrition education. B. Provide pamphlets about heart healthy diet selections. C. Suggest exercise as an alternative to increase HDL levels. D. Discuss client's concerns about the change in diet. E. None F. None

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Refer the client to a dietitian for nutrition education:
This is incorrect. While a dietitian can provide valuable information about nutrition, referring the client at this point may not be effective because the client has expressed resistance to changing eating habits. The priority is to first explore the client’s concerns and address barriers to compliance before involving other resources.

B. Provide pamphlets about heart-healthy diet selections:
This is incorrect. Providing educational materials may be helpful, but it does not address the client’s emotional or psychological resistance to dietary changes. Simply giving pamphlets without engaging in a meaningful conversation may fail to motivate the client or address his reluctance.

C. Suggest exercise as an alternative to increase HDL levels:
This is incorrect. Exercise can help improve HDL (good cholesterol) levels, but it does not replace the need for dietary changes in managing elevated cholesterol levels. Suggesting exercise alone does not address the underlying issue of the client’s refusal to change his diet.

D. Discuss the client’s concerns about the change in diet:
This is correct. Engaging the client in a discussion about his concerns allows the nurse to understand the reasons for his resistance, such as fear of failure, lack of knowledge, or cultural preferences. By addressing these concerns, the nurse can build trust, provide tailored education, and motivate the client to consider small, achievable changes
