The client is about to go to surgery but is still wearing a class ring. Which nursing action is most appropriate regarding care of the client's valuables?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
Valuables like a ring should be secured in the hospital safe to prevent loss or theft during surgery. Leaving it in the bedside stand is insecure, taping it risks circulation issues, and giving it to a security guard is not standard protocol.
