Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During an attack of Ménière's disease, the client experiences symptoms such as vertigo, nausea, vomiting, and difficulty balancing. As a result, they may need assistance with ADLs (activities of daily living) such as eating, bathing, and dressing. The nurse should prioritize providing assistance with these tasks during an attack to ensure the client's safety and comfort. Sleeping or coughing does not address the immediate needs of the client during an attack, and URIs (upper respiratory infections) are not directly related to Ménière's disease.
