Question 17 • Nursing Assistant - EL3610

Why should nursing assistants remind patients not to wrap their dentures in napkins?

Answer
A
They can easily be mistaken as bed linens and get laundered.
B
They can easily be mistaken as trash and get thrown away.
C
They can stick to the napkin and be difficult to clean.
D
They can stick to the napkin and become discolored

Explanation

Dentures wrapped in a napkin can look like discarded food or trash. Someone may throw the napkin away without realizing the dentures are inside, so patients should store dentures in a labeled denture cup instead. The correct choice is that they can easily be mistaken as trash and get thrown away.
