Cevap

The appropriate actions include providing information for support groups, referring the family to a home health agency for daytime assistance, and collaborating with the spouse to identify options for weekend respite care.
Providing contact information for support groups offers emotional and educational support for both the client and caregiver. Referring the family to a home health agency directly addresses the practical gap in care while the spouse is working. Collaborating to identify other friends or family members helps build a broader support network, which reduces the risk of caregiver burnout by planning for necessary respite care.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the client's clinical and social situation presented in the scenario.
The client has physical and communication deficits requiring care, but the primary caregiver (spouse) works full-time, creating a significant gap in daytime support.
Identifying the specific gaps in the support system dictates which nursing interventions and referrals are necessary.
2
Evaluate potential nursing interventions based on therapeutic communication, professional boundaries, and scope of practice.
Referrals to community resources and collaborating to build a respite network are appropriate. Giving personal employment advice or delegating initial assessments to UAPs are incorrect actions.
To select evidence-based, safe, and professional nursing actions that directly enhance the client's support system.
