The nurse identifies the client problem 'risk for imbalanced body temperature' for the client diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Which intervention should be included in the plan of care?

A

Hypothyroidism causes cold intolerance; discouraging electric blankets prevents burns due to reduced sensation. Frequent temperature checks, cool rooms, and rest are less relevant.
