Title: The nurse is taking a patient who has Alzheimer’s disease to the bathing room fo Post by: nurse2mrow on Sep 16, 2014 The nurse is taking a patient who has Alzheimer’s disease to the bathing room for a tub bath. The patient states, “Please don’t make me take a bath today, I am so afraid that I will be washed down the drain.” The nurse’s best response would be:
1. “Don’t be silly, there’s no way you would fit in the drain.” 2. “I am your nurse, and I will stay with you, so you shouldn’t be afraid of your bath.” 3. “Let’s go back to your room and I will bathe you there.” 4. “Today is your day for a bath.” This is for my medical nursing class Title: Re: The nurse is taking a patient who has Alzheimer’s disease to the bathing room fo Post by: f_zah1 on Oct 24, 2014 Content hidden
