Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: For nutritional support to promote healthy tissue, clients should consume more than 40 of their meals.
Rationale 2: Keeping linens dry and wrinkle-free will prevent pressure areas.
Rationale 3: Fluids should not be restricted unless some other physical condition dictates. The skin should be kept hydrated.
