NCLEX RN Practice Question

A nurse is caring for a client who follows a specific cultural tradition requiring fasting during certain times of the year. The client is currently hospitalized and prescribed medications that need to be taken with food. What is the nurse's best course of action?

  • Inform the client that fasting must be suspended while they are hospitalized to prioritize medical needs.

  • Discuss the fasting practice with the client and collaborate to adjust the medication schedule or explore alternative options.

  • Instruct the client to consult their cultural leader for guidance without offering medical adjustments.

  • Administer the medications as prescribed without addressing the fasting practice.
