The client who was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus 1 year ago is hospitalized in diabetic ketoacidosis after a religious fast. The client tells the nurse, I have fasted during this season every year since I became an adult.
 
  I am not going to stop now.. The nurse is not knowledgeable about this particular religion. What is the best action for this nurse? 1. Tell the client that it is different now because of the diabetes.
   2. Do some research into the meaning of fasting in this religion.
   3. Ask family members of the same religion to discuss fasting with the client.
   4. Request a consult from a diabetes educator.
