Question 1 of 5
A home health nurse visits a client who lost their partner 2 years ago. Which of the following behaviors by the client indicates a maladaptive grief response?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because the client being unable to perform basic hygiene tasks indicates maladaptive grief. This behavior suggests a significant impairment in daily functioning, which is not a typical response to grief. Relocating (
