necessary.
Ask staff members to participate in a trial of the new scheduling system.
Participating in a trial implementation of the new schedule is a component of the moving stage of
change.
Encourage staff to offer alternate scheduling solutions.
Encouraging staff to offer alternate scheduling solutions is a component of the moving stage of
change. Involving staff members in the change will make them feel included and less resistant to
the new schedule.
Develop goals to implement the new scheduling system.
, Developing goals and objectives to implement the new schedule is a component of the moving
stage of change.

Albumin 4.2 g/dL -nutritional status (def nutrition)
Recent weight loss
10. A nurse is teaching about total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and IV lipid emulsions with a
client who has an extensive burn injury. Which of the following information should the
nurse include?

"TPN is a way to provide vitamins and minerals without increased calories." -calories to patients
who are unable to eat/ not have a functioning GI tract
"Taking TPN can increase the risk of developing a latex allergy." – egg allergy/ not latex
