A client with a perineal carbuncle and an abscess is being given morning care by a newly hired nurse who is being mentored by another staff nurse. The client had an incision and drainage of the wound three days ago. Current orders include bedrest; diet and fluids as desired; warm, moist compresses every four hours; and topical and systemic antibiotics. Which observation of the newly hired nurse giving care should be interrupted and clarified by the mentoring nurse?
1. The nurse cleanses the area with warm water before applying the compress.
2. The nurse encourages the client to do active range of motion to all extremities.
3. The nurse uses sterile gloves and gauze to change the compresses.
4. The nurse places a bed cradle on the bed.
