Question 1 of 5

A client who was a victim of a gunshot incident states, 'I feel like I am losing my mind. I keep hearing the gunshots and seeing my friend lying on the ground.' Which strategy should the nurse include when initially formulating a therapeutic relationship?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: When developing a therapeutic relationship, it is important to acknowledge and validate the client's feelings. Although teaching the client relaxation techniques may be helpful at some point, it is not related to the subject of the question. Options 2 and 4 are nontherapeutic techniques, and they do not promote a therapeutic relationship.
