The nurse goes to the client's room to give morning care. The client is reading a Bible. What should the nurse do?

A) Ask her what religion she practices
B) Ask if she wants him or her to come back in 15 minutes
C) Tell her that her morning care will only take a few minutes and then she can return to her reading
D) Leave the toilet articles on her table for her to use later


Ans: B
Feedback:
Asking about the client's religious practices is not relevant. Asking if she wants him or her to come back in 15 minutes indicates acceptance of a client's religious practice. Pushing through to complete the required care is incorrect and indicates a lack of respect for the client's religious practice. Leaving the toilet articles on her table for her to use later would probably be disruptive to the client's reading.

What are this couple's options for in vitro fertilization? Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected. Standard Text: Select all that apply. 1. An embryo that does not have the genotype could be implanted. 2. The couple could request that they not be told if any of the embryos not implanted had the genotype of concern. 3. They could have multiple embryos placed during in vitro fertilization and hope that the one without the specific genotype is strongest and therefore implants. 4. They could have in vitro fertilization with donor eggs and sperm without the genotype. 5. No options exist for this situation with today's technology.
