Section 8 Management Considerations: Supervision The nurse enters the client's room to assess readiness for teaching related to local 12-step programs and observes that the Unlicensed Assistive Personnel (UAP) is already providing information about local programs. Question 24 of 25 Which action should the nurse take? Document the initial client teaching was completed by the UAP. The nurse must complete initial client teaching, so the client teaching should be repeated, and documented as performe by the nurse. Praise the UAP for taking the initiative to complete higher priority tasks. The nurse must complete initial client teaching, which requires expertise beyond the level of a UAP. Explain to the UAP, away from the client, that initial client teaching must be performed by the nurse. Initial client teaching instructions requires the expertise of the nurse and then can be reinforced by the UAP. Crawford, L. (2020). Fundamentals of Nursing. (2nd edition). St. Louis, Missouri. Elsevier. Pg. 61. Request that the UAP be assigned to another unit. This is not necessary at this time. Subunit Section 9 After the nurse and the UAP discuss the client teaching, the UAP expresses concern about a visit from the client's significant other that took place earlier in the day. Question 25 of 25 Which of the significant other's behaviors exhibit codependency toward the client? (Select all that apply.) The significant other states that moving out of their shared home caused the client to start drinking heavily. Finding excases for the alcohol abuse is a codependent behavior. Morrison-Valfre, M. (2021), Foundations of Mental Health Care (7th edition). St. Louis, Missouri, Elsevier. Pg. 88, 91. The significant other removed the hidden alcohol from the home and is now moving back in to keep a close eye on the client. This behavior demonstrates that the significant other focis responsible for the client. Searching for and removing alcohol is further evidence of codependent behavior. Morrison-Valfre, M. (2021). Foundations of Mental Health Care (7th edition). St. Louis, Missouri. Elsevier. Pg. 88.91. The significant other brings two new pairs of jeans because the client only had one pair in total. This behavior is unrelated to the drinking issues, and does not demonstrate a codependent behavior. The significant other states they would like to have a child together. This statement does not deruenstrate codependent tendencies. The significant other has paid all of the bills for the next two months so that the client won't have to worry about finances when discharged. This statement shows the significant other feels a need to control the finances and assume responsibility for the client's duties. Morrison-Valfre, M. (2021) Foundations of Mental Health Care (7th edition) St. Louis, Missouri. Elsevier. Pg. 88. 91.
