A nurse in a provider's office is caring for a client who has total vision loss and is the handler of a service dog. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to show consideration for the client and the service animal?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
Consulting the client before approaching the service dog respects the dog's role and the client's preferences, preventing distraction. Petting, offering water, or commanding the dog can interfere with its duties.
