A client with stable angina secondary to ischemic heart disease receives a prescription for sublingual nitroglycerin prior to discharge from the hospital. During discharge teaching, the client assures the nurse a plan to fill the prescription via online mail order service as soon as arriving at home. How should the nurse respond?

A. Confirm that a family member also knows how to administer the medication: It is helpful for family members to be informed, but the priority is ensuring the client has immediate access to nitroglycerin. B. Document the client's plans to fill the prescription on the discharge teaching plan: Documentation is important, but it does not address the urgent need for access to medication. Relying on post-discharge mail delivery may result in a delay that compromises the client’s safety. C. Explain the importance of obtaining the medication before leaving the hospital: Nitroglycerin is used for the rapid relief of chest pain and must be readily available at all times. Clients should not leave the hospital without this critical rescue medication. D. Schedule a follow-up visit with the healthcare provider for one week after discharge: While follow-up is essential for monitoring treatment efficacy and adjustments, it does not resolve the immediate need for having nitroglycerin accessible in case of angina.
