, EAQ Nursing Process Test Questions and Answers
Encouraging the patient to take the tablet by explaining its benefits
Holding onto the tablet until the patient is ready to swallow the tablet
Instructing the patient to keep the tablet on the front of the tongue and swallow
Reporting the situation to the primary health care provider and requesting to change the
medication form Correct Ans-Reporting the situation to the primary health care provider
and requesting to change the medication form
When an older patient has a difficult time swallowing a medication and a physical problem
has been ruled out, the nurse should report the situation to the primary health provider in
order to have him or her change the medication form. The nurse should be patient and should
not insist the patient to take the tablet by explaining its benefits. Holding onto the tablet until
the patient is ready to swallow the tablet is not an appropriate intervention, because the
medication may be required immediately. If a physical problem has not been ruled out, the
patient should be taught to keep the tablet on the front of the tongue, and he or she may be
able to swallow by washing it back off the throat.
