The caregiver for a client with moderate to severe dementia tells the nurse, I'm exhausted. He wanders at night instead of sleeping, so I get no rest.
 
  I'm afraid to leave him during the day, so I have to take him to the grocery store and to the laundromat. When I'm busy there, he often wanders off. Still, I have to do it all. The nurse rec-ognizes the need to provide teaching for this caregiver. An appropriate outcome is that the care-giver will:
  1. Feel justified in putting the client in a nursing home
  2. Verbalize realistic self-expectations
  3. Cease abusive interactions with the client
  4. Feel comfortable leaving the client alone one morning a week
