A nurse and an assistive personnel (AP) are assigned a group of clients on the unit. Which of the following clients should the nurse instruct the AP to report to the nurse?

A. A client who requests to sit in the bedside chair while watching TV: This is a routine activity of daily living that the AP can safely assist with and does not require immediate reporting unless complications arise. B. A client who has a prescription for compression stockings and did not receive them: Failure to implement prescribed interventions, such as compression stockings, can increase the risk of complications like deep vein thrombosis. The AP should report this to the nurse so corrective action can be taken promptly. C. A client who requests assistance to use the bedside commode: This is a standard care task within the AP’s scope. The AP can provide assistance without needing to report unless the client has an abnormal condition or complication. D. A client who consumes all the food from their meal tray: While food intake is useful for monitoring nutrition, consuming the entire tray is a positive outcome and does not require reporting unless it affects dietary restrictions or medical orders.
