Health Promotion and Maintenance
NCLEX-PN® practice.

A licensed practical nurse (LPN) is making a home health visit to a 52-year-old woman who is preparing to retire next month after 30 years as a factory line worker. The client recently began using a new front-wheeled walker following a knee replacement and reports mild difficulty judging distances due to early cataracts. She tells the nurse, "I never finished school, so reading isn't easy for me, and I just want to know what to do day to day." Her vital signs are stable, and she is alert, oriented, and engaged in conversation about her upcoming life change. The RN case manager has already completed the comprehensive assessment and established the plan of care. Which actions should the LPN take when reinforcing teaching and assisting this client with her transition to retirement and use of the walker? Select all that apply.
