Question 1 of 5
A charge nurse is discussing the care of a client who has a substance use disorder with a staff nurse. Which of the following statements by the staff nurse should the charge nurse identify as countertransference?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Countertransference occurs when a healthcare provider projects their own feelings or experiences onto a client. In this case, the staff nurse comparing the client to their brother who overcame addiction demonstrates a personal connection that may affect their ability to provide unbiased care. This can lead to potential issues in therapeutic boundaries and compromise the client's care.
A: This choice does not involve countertransference as it simply describes a professional boundary being maintained.
B: This choice focuses on the client's responsibility and does not involve the nurse's personal feelings or experiences.
D: This choice indicates a positive interaction during therapy sessions and does not demonstrate countertransference.
