Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: Normally the client would be positioned in the left lateral position with the right leg acutely flexed, but this client had surgery on the left hip, and would not tolerate this position. As a result, the nurse would position the client on her back with the legs abducted. Sitting on the commode would reduce the efficiency of the solution instillation, as it would be going against gravity.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,4
Rationale: Teaching plans might have to be modified if learning outcomes have not been met.
