Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
Providing a snack to a diabetic client who is feeling lightheaded.
Rationale:
🔸A diabetic client who is feeling lightheaded could be experiencing hypoglycemia, which requires immediate attention.
🔸This task is time-sensitive and should be prioritized over non-urgent care like bathing or ambulation.
🔸 Feeding a client or assisting with a bath is important, but addressing blood glucose issues takes precedence due to the risk of rapid deterioration.
