The Nurse Adds to the Plan of Care for a Cognitively

The nurse adds to the plan of care for a cognitively impaired resident who has begun to wander night and day throughout the long-term care facility. An appropriate intervention to add to the plan of care for the resident with wandering behavior would be to:

A) place the resident on a locked unit to prevent long-range wandering.
B) obtain an order for wrist restraints or a vest restraint.
C) apply a bracelet that alarms as the resident approaches an outside door.
D) discuss with the health care provider the need for stronger medication.
