Explanation
Answer: C - This is an analysis question. Analysis questions take the familiar and use it in an unfamiliar setting. This question is testing your critical thinking ability to problem solve. The problem, in this case, is to determine what the question is actually asking. The information only indicates a client receiving Haldol, an antipsychotic medication, which does not require dietary restrictions. Without further information, a regular diet is the only possible choice for this client. This question is asking for an example of a regular diet.
