nurse is caring for a client who has hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The client’s blood pressure this morning was 150/92 mm Hg. When the client asks the nurse what their blood pressure should be, what is the nurse’s most appropriate response? “Your blood pressure is fine. Just keep doing what you’re doing.” “The lower the better. Blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg is best for everyone.” “Clients with diabetes should have a lower blood pressure goal. You should strive for 120/80 mm Hg.” “The current recommendation is for everyone to have blood pressure of 140/90 mm Hg or lower.”
