A nurse is assisting with the plan of care for a client who has viral hepatitis. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan?

A. Provide periods of rest: Rest helps the liver conserve energy and recover from inflammation caused by viral hepatitis. Fatigue is a common symptom, and periods of rest support healing. B. Encourage eating three large meals daily: Clients with viral hepatitis may have early satiety and nausea, so smaller, frequent meals are preferable to reduce discomfort and support nutrition. C. Provide a low-calorie diet: Adequate calories are needed to prevent malnutrition; low-calorie diets can worsen fatigue and weight loss. D. Administer acetaminophen for pain: Acetaminophen is hepatotoxic in high doses and should be avoided or used with caution in clients with liver disease. Non-pharmacologic pain management or safer analgesics may be preferred.
