Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an emergency department is assessing an adolescent who has conduct disorder. Which of the following questions is the priority for the nurse to ask the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Do you have thoughts of harming yourself? This question is the priority as it addresses the immediate safety and well-being of the adolescent. Individuals with conduct disorder are at higher risk for self-harm or suicidal ideation. By asking about thoughts of self-harm, the nurse can assess the client's risk level and take appropriate actions to ensure their safety.
Choices A, B, and D are important questions to ask in assessing a client with conduct disorder, but they are not as immediate or critical as addressing the risk of self-harm. Understanding the client's relationships with peers, criminal history, and behavior management are important aspects of the assessment but do not take precedence over ensuring the client's safety.
