Practice Question

A client who was treated for emphysema and cellulitis with leg ulcerations is being discharged home with home health care services. The nurse knows that discharge planning for this client should involve which materials and equipment? Select all that apply.

Answer Choices:

A. Bedside commode ✓ Correct Answer

B. Incentive spirometer

C. Wound care supplies

D. Portable oxygen machine

E. Epinephrine injectable pen

Correct Answer:

Bedside commode

Rationale:

🚽Clients with cellulitis and leg ulcers need wound care supplies for proper dressing changes and prevention of infection.

💨Those with emphysema benefit from portable oxygen and an incentive spirometer to improve lung expansion and reduce respiratory effort.

🚻A bedside commode is important for clients with decreased mobility due to leg ulceration and fatigue.

❌An epinephrine pen is unnecessary unless the client has a known allergy or risk of anaphylaxis.

📌Core Message

Clients discharged with emphysema and leg ulcerations need wound care supplies, oxygen support, and mobility aids to continue safe care at home.
