Question 1 of 5

A client with a diagnosis of depression states to the nurse, 'I should have died. I've always been a failure.' Which therapeutic response should the nurse make to the client?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Responding to the feelings expressed by a client is an effective therapeutic communication technique. The correct option is an example of the use of restating.
