Question 1 of 5

A client has a fractured right arm. What should the nurse do first?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The nurse should first remove the client's bracelet and rings from the right arm. This action is crucial to prevent complications such as swelling and restricted blood flow, which could worsen the condition. Applying ice, administering pain medications, and sending the client for an x-ray are important steps but should come after ensuring the client's jewelry is removed to avoid any further issues.

Question 3 of 5

By doing so, the nurse can gain insight into any barriers the client may be facing and work together to find solutions to improve adherence. Choice A is not appropriate as it doesn't address the client's situation. Choice C is not relevant and may induce fear in the client. Choice D is directive and does not promote open communication or understanding of the client's perspective.
