    The nurse is developing a plan of care for an older male client with type 2 diabetes who reports blurred vision. Which outcome should the nurse include in the plan of care for this client?

    Explanation & Rationale

    Choice A reason: While it is important for the client's family to understand signs and symptoms of diabetes, this outcome focuses on the family's knowledge rather than the client's health improvement.Choice B reason: Expressing acceptance of changing health status is important for emotional well-being, but it does not directly address the client's physical health outcomes.Choice C reason: Demonstrating accurate eye care procedures is part of nursing interventions, not an outcome.Choice D reason: Maintaining blood pressure below 140/80 mm Hg is a specific, measurable, and relevant outcome for a client with type 2 diabetes, as it helps prevent complications related to hypertension and diabetes.
