Answer:

3. 5. and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that if the client makes any of the following statements then they need further teaching from the nurse, "I can resume swimming laps three times a week", "I will call my HCP if I have green drainage" , or "I am glad I can lift whatever I want" . This is because, the t-tube should not be immersed in water, green drainage is normal and does not require a call to HCP, and no excercise or heavy lifting should be done for a minimum of 5 weeks.
