- A. Discuss what the wife is going to do with the clothes.
- B. Refer the wife to a grief recovery support group.
- C. Do not take any action because this is normal grieving.

The nurse is caring for a client who is confused and fell trying to get out of bed. There is no family at the client's bedside. Which action should the nurse implement first?
- A. Contact a family member to come and stay with the client.
- B. Administer a sedative medication to the client.
- C. Place the client in a chair with a sheet tied around him or her.
- D. Notify the health-care provider to obtain a restraint order.

- B. The nurse keeps the client on a strict fluid restriction.
- C. The nurse limits the visitors the client can receive.

Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A durable power of attorney for health care activates when the client is incapacitated, per legal standards. Financial decisions, anesthesia, or client permission are incorrect triggers.
