An individual being treated in the emergency room is found to have flushed, dry skin and sensorium that alternates between clouded and clear. A friend reveals the patient has not voided or ingested food or fluid in 18 hours.
 
  When the health care provider diagnoses fever of unknown origin, the plan is to make an effort to orally hydrate before attempting to start an IV line. The intervention most likely to be effective will be: a. placing a pitcher of water at the patient's bedside.
  b. placing a force fluids sign at the head of the bed.
  c. asking the friend to give the patient a drink whenever the patient is alert.
  d. staying with the patient to ensure that a glass of liquid is ingested once every hour.
