The frail patient asks the nurse if a bath is to be given this morning. The best reply by the nurse that would encourage independence and give the patient the most flexibility would be:
1.   “Based on your room number, you get bathed on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Today is Tuesday.”
2.   “If you want to eat breakfast in the dining room with the others, you may sponge yourself off in your bathroom.”
3.   “When your daughter comes this evening, ask her if she can give you a bath then.”
4.   “I will bring a basin of water for a sponge off for right now. After breakfast, we will talk about a bath schedule.”
