A nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a newly admitted client who has anorexia nervosa. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include?

A. Monitor the client for 1 hr after meals: Clients with anorexia nervosa are at high risk for purging behaviors such as vomiting or excessive exercise after meals. Monitoring them for at least 1 hour post-meal helps prevent these behaviors and supports the therapeutic goal of safe weight restoration. B. Allow the client 2 hr to finish meals: Allowing 2 hours to complete meals is too long and may encourage food avoidance behaviors. Structured meal times with limits (usually around 30 to 45 minutes) are important to establish routine eating habits and prevent manipulation of eating times. C. Weigh the client every 2 days: Clients with anorexia nervosa are typically weighed daily, often at the same time each morning, to closely monitor weight trends and assess the effectiveness of the treatment plan. Monitoring every 2 days may miss rapid changes that require immediate intervention. D. Check the client's vital signs two times per week: Vital signs should be checked daily in clients with anorexia nervosa, especially early in treatment, because of the risks of bradycardia, hypotension, and hypothermia. Infrequent monitoring can delay recognition of life-threatening physiological instability.
