The agency policy requires the nurse to document in the MAR. Where is the nurse going to document according to this abbreviation?

A. "Understanding" is subjective and cannot be directly measured. It would be more effective if the goal focused on the patient demonstrating their understanding (e.g., "The patient will explain the importance of daily iron supplements").
B. Feelings such as comfort are difficult to measure objectively.
C. This goal is too broad and vague to be measured effectively. It's not clear how "sufficient information" would be assessed.
D. This goal is measurable because the nurse can observe or document if the patient verbalizes the responsibility to obtain their daily weights, which is an objective outcome that can be assessed.

A. Fixed lymph nodes are typically indicative of infection or malignancy. Healthy nodes are not fixed to the surrounding tissue.
B. Healthy lymph nodes are usually discrete (distinct and separated from surrounding tissue), mobile (moveable), and have a rubbery consistency. These are normal findings in a healthy patient.
C. Nonpalpable lymph nodes are normal and often not felt during an exam, especially if they are small or deeply located.
D. Large, firm, and fixed lymph nodes could be a sign of infection or a more serious condition such as cancer and would not be typical in a healthy patient.
