In what order should a nurse visit clients when one requires blood glucose testing before a procedure?

Visiting the diabetes client first is the most appropriate choice because it prioritizes a critical aspect of their care related to blood glucose testing before a procedure. This testing is vital for ensuring the client’s safety and readiness for any subsequent interventions. A timely blood glucose test can help prevent complications such as hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia, which can adversely affect not just the procedure but also the client's overall health.

After addressing the needs of the diabetes client, the nurse can focus on the wound irrigation client, who likely needs attention for a localized issue that, while important, may not require immediate intervention compared to ensuring the diabetes client’s safety prior to their procedure. Following that, attending to the admission client can be appropriately managed afterward, as their needs may include assessment and paperwork that can be accomplished once the immediate clinical concerns have been addressed. This sequence reflects a logical prioritization based on the urgency of client care needs and the potential impact on client outcomes.
