The elderly client recovering from a prostatectomy has been experiencing stress incontinence. Which independent nursing intervention should the nurse discuss with the client?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
A bladder drill with timed voiding strengthens bladder control and reduces stress incontinence post-prostatectomy. Voiding every 2 hours is part of it, family assistance reduces independence, and electrical stimulators are not standard.
