Question 1 of 5
A client diagnosed with delirium anxiously states, 'Look at the spiders on the wall.' Which response by the nurse addresses the client's concerns therapeutically?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: When hallucinations are present, the nurse should reinforce reality with the client while acknowledging the client's feelings as the correct option does. Eliminate options 1, 2, and 4 because they do not reinforce reality but rather support the legitimacy of the hallucination or that reinforces reality but does not address the client's feelings.
