Rationale: The correct teaching point for a client with left-leg weakness learning to use a cane is to maintain two points of support on the floor at all times. This ensures better stability and support for the client while walking. Choice A is incorrect because the cane should be used on the stronger side to support the weaker leg. Choice C is incorrect as advancing the cane too far with each step may compromise balance. Choice D is incorrect because advancing the cane and the strong leg together may not provide adequate support for the weaker leg.

Rationale: The correct answer is A. A neurological assessment includes evaluating the level of consciousness and motor function as they are key components in assessing neurological function. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as headache, nausea, reflexes, pupil size, tremors, and confusion may be part of a neurological assessment but are not the key components that are fundamental for a comprehensive assessment.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A WBC count of 2,900/mm3 indicates leukopenia, which is a serious side effect of clozapine and contraindicates its use. Leukopenia is a significant concern with clozapine therapy due to the risk of agranulocytosis, a potentially life-threatening condition. Monitoring the WBC count is crucial to detect this adverse effect early. The other options (B, C, and D) are within normal ranges and not contraindications for administering clozapine.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because avoiding solid foods after bariatric surgery is crucial to prevent complications and promote healing.

Choice D is incorrect as taking small sips of liquids is encouraged to prevent dehydration and promote recovery.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The client with low blood glucose needs immediate assessment to ensure that the orange juice has corrected the hypoglycemia. Monitoring the effectiveness of the intervention for low blood glucose is the priority. The other options, such as a client scheduled for a procedure in 1 hour, a client with fluid remaining in the IV bag, and a client who received pain medication 30 minutes ago, do not require immediate assessment like the client with low blood glucose.
