Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a community health clinic is interviewing a couple who just lost their house in a fire. Using the priority framework of Maslow's hierarchy of needs,which category should the nurse identify for the client's situation?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Safety. In Maslow's hierarchy of needs, safety needs are prioritized after physiological needs. The couple just lost their house in a fire, which poses a threat to their physical safety. Addressing safety needs is crucial before moving on to higher-level needs like self-actualization, esteem, or love and belonging. Safety includes physical safety as well as financial and emotional security, all of which are relevant in this situation.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because self-actualization, esteem, and love and belonging needs are higher-level needs that are considered once lower-level needs, like safety, are met.
