After being admitted directly to the surgery unit, a 75-year-old client who had elective surgery to replace an arthritic hip was discharged from the postanesthesia recovery unit. The client has been on the orthopedic floor for several hours. Which type of planning will be least useful during the first shift on the orthopedic unit?

A: Initial
B: Ongoing
C: Discharge
D: Strategic

The correct answer is option D: "Strategic".

Explanation:

Strategic planning refers to a series of steps that an organization needs to follow in order to achieve the goals of the institution, in this case, a hospital or the orthopedic unit. Strategic planning is usually performed by the directors of the institution, therefore, this type of planning will be the least useful during the first shift to treat the 75-year-old client. Other types of planning focused directly on the client are more useful than strategic planning at this point of the treatment.
