A patient has been advised by the physician to take medication for high cholesterol and to change ...

A patient has been advised by the physician to take medication for high cholesterol and to change eating habits after discharge home. The home health nurse discovered that the patient refused to follow the medical and nutritional directions. The nurse’s best initial response to this situation is to:
a.   emphasize to the patient how important it is to follow the doctor’s advice.
b.   determine whether any cultural, socioeconomic, or religious values conflict, thus interfering with the patient’s compliance.
c.   explain that without diet and medication the condition will worsen and serious problems will develop.
d.   inform the physician that the patient is unable to understand the instructions.
