Check all that apply.when a patient has problems healingwhen a patient is taking antibioticswhen a patient is taking anticoagulant drugswhen a visitor brings an electric shaverwhen a patient prefers an electric shaver

Answer
A
when a patient has problems healing
B
when a patient is taking antibiotics
C
when a patient is taking anticoagulant drugs
D
when a visitor brings an electric shaver
E
when a patient prefers an electric shaver

Explanation

Choose an electric shaver when the patient has problems healing or takes anticoagulant drugs, because a safety razor can cause cuts that may bleed more or heal poorly. A patient’s preference is also a valid reason to use an electric shaver when it is safe and available. Taking antibiotics alone does not indicate that an electric shaver is needed, and a visitor bringing one is not by itself a clinical reason to select it.
