The nurse is bathing an elderly client at 0800. On turning
the client, the nurse finds a small white tablet on the bed.
The client takes furosemide (a small white tablet) at 0700 and
1700. It is most appropriate for the nurse to:
a)
recommend that the medications be mixed with soft food to avoid
client noncompliance.
b)
administer another dose of furosemide now.
c)
record that a small white tablet was found on the client's
bed.
d)
inform the client that the morning dose of furosemide was found
on the bed.
