A Correct. The nurse provides safe, effective, and comprehensive care but should not provide legal advice to an older adult; instead, the nurse should refer the pa-tient to experts in the law and can assist the older adult with finding a suitable attorney. The nurse must avoid participating in the choosing of the individual attorney to avoid conflict of interest.
B Incorrect. The nurse can provide short general explanations about powers of at-torney in order to assist the patient in finding suitable legal counsel, but the nurse should leave explanations about the law surrounding a DPA to the attor-neys.
C Incorrect. The nurse should avoid providing legal advice to an older adult to avoid conflict of interest.
D Incorrect. The nurse should avoid offering to participate in or participating in an older adult's legal affairs to avoid conflict of interest.
Answer to Question 2
B
Feedback
A Incorrect. Although this can be an option, it would be premature to implement this before any other attempts to resolve the problem.
B Correct. This man is underweight and has low hemoglobin, potential signs of malnutrition. The nurse employs education and problem solving for adults who have nutritional deficiencies and live in the community and thus meets with the family and the older adult to manage the malnutrition and improve this nutri-tional status.
C Incorrect. Sources for food are not this man's problem unless the family-supplied meal is his only source of food, which the reader does not know.
D Incorrect. This can be a part of education and problem solving; still, the best chance of improving this man's malnutrition is to engage him in the plan; thus the nurse avoids contacting the family except to engage them in problem solving along with the older adult.
