    A nurse is planning care for a client who has reduced visual sensory perception. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Frequently rearranging bedside items increases confusion and risk for injury among clients with visual impairments; consistency enhances safety. B. Removing obstacles from the client’s path reduces fall risk and promotes safe ambulation. Clear pathways and consistent furniture placement are critical interventions for clients with reduced vision. C. Speaking loudly is unnecessary unless the client has hearing impairment; it may even startle or distress the client. The nurse should instead identify themselves and speak clearly. D. Walking parallel may disorient the client; the nurse should offer an elbow and walk slightly ahead to guide safely.
