What is the correct approach when giving PM care?

  1. After breakfast

  2. After lunch

  3. After snacks

  4. Before lunch

The correct answer is: After breakfast

When giving PM care, it is best to do so after breakfast. This is because after breakfast, the patient has had enough time to finish their meal and may be more comfortable for the caregiver to provide care. B and D are incorrect because lunchtime is typically in the middle of the day, when the patient may be engaged in meals or activities. C is incorrect because snacks are usually smaller and less time-consuming, and may not provide enough time for the caregiver to provide thorough care. Therefore, A is the best option for giving PM care.
