A nurse is caring for a client who has lung cancer and has a sealed radiation implant. Which of the following actions should the nurse take? (Select all that apply.)

Rationale: A. Limit visitors to 30 min per day: Time restrictions help reduce others’ exposure to radiation from the sealed implant. Limiting duration minimizes cumulative exposure for visitors while still allowing social interaction for the client. B. Place the client in a semi-private room: Clients with internal radiation implants require a private room to protect others from unnecessary radiation exposure. A semi-private room increases the risk of radiation exposure to other patients and is inappropriate. C. Instruct visitors who are pregnant to remain 3 feet from the client: Pregnant visitors should avoid contact with clients receiving internal radiation entirely, as even minimal exposure could harm the fetus. The safest recommendation is to avoid visiting during treatment. D. Wear a lead apron when providing care: A lead apron shields the nurse from radiation exposure, especially when working close to the client. This is part of the time, distance, and shielding principles for radiation safety. E. Close the door to the client's room: Keeping the door closed helps contain radiation within the client’s room, reducing exposure to staff and visitors in nearby areas. This is a standard precaution in caring for clients with sealed implants.
