Correct Answer: 1,2,3
Rationale 1: High expectations of a successful outcome will help clients adhere to a medication regimen. If the medication does not meet these expectations, the client may stop taking it.
Rationale 2: Clients are more likely to follow a medication regimen if they have supportive family members.
Rationale 3: Clients are more likely to adhere to a medication regimen if there are minimal adverse effects. Teaching the client to take this medication with food may decrease the nausea and improve adherence.
Rationale 4: Positive interactions with staff may increase adherence.
Rationale 5: A simple, short-term, inexpensive regimen with minimum daily disruption helps to increase adherence.
