A nurse is planning teaching for a client who has a new diagnosis of HIV. Which of the following information should the nurse include about preventing the spread of the infection?

Rationale: A. Buy disposable dishes for daily use: HIV is not transmitted through saliva or casual household contact, including sharing dishes. Disposable dishes are unnecessary and promote stigma. B. Clean blood-contaminated surfaces with bleach: A 1:10 bleach solution is effective in killing HIV on surfaces. Proper cleaning of blood spills is essential for preventing transmission. C. Wash soiled clothes in cold water: Hot water (not cold) and detergent should be used to clean potentially contaminated clothing to reduce the risk of infection. D. Use condoms with a petroleum-based lubricant: Petroleum-based lubricants degrade latex condoms, increasing the risk of breakage. Water- or silicone-based lubricants should be used instead.
