A client tells the nurse that she is interested in learning yoga to help with chronic back and leg ...

The answer to question 1

1
Nurses can encourage clients to participate in yoga by finding a local organization that has yoga teachers and training programs. This is what the nurse should respond to the client. Yoga has other benefits that acupuncture may not have. The nurse should not encourage the client to utilize one type of mind-body therapy over another. The client did not express an interest in weight training so the nurse should not make that suggestion.

The answer to question 2

2
Confidentiality is the protection of private information gathered about a client during the provision of health care services. However, the nurse does have the duty to report or disclose information in the event of suspected abuse. The nurse should report the findings of domestic violence to the appropriate regulatory agency. Documenting the assessment findings is important; however, the nurse needs to report these findings. The client does not need to be moved to a private room. Notifying the physician is not sufficient.

The answer to question 3

3
Massage reduces heart rate, reduces blood pressure, increases energy, and increases immune system activity. Massage does not reduce blood glucose level, increase heart rate, or enhance appetite.

Bravo! This is awesome
