Your 12-month-old client has had repeated ear infections. The parent has noticed that the client does not look toward the sources of noises and has not started to vocalize. Which nursing diagnosis would be most appropriate?
 
  1. Social isolation
  2. Impaired verbal communication
  3. Disturbed sensory/perceptual: auditory
  4. Self-care deficit

Question 2

   2. Contact the central supply department in the facility and obtain latex-free products for the client's room.
   3. Wait until Monday to report the problem to the supervisor of the unit.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3

Answer to Question 2

2. Contact the central supply department in the facility and obtain latex-free products for the client's room.

Rationale:
When symptoms of sensitivity to latex occur on exposure, the central supply department of the facility should be contacted, and latex-free products should be supplied. Transferring the client to a department that does not use latex products is not realistic because family member might experience exposure on another unit. (No hospital unit can be latex-free.) Waiting until Monday does not solve the problem. Asking the family member to leave would be a violation of the client's right's.
