Question 1 of 5

A nurse in an urgent-care clinic is caring for a school-age child who has several visible bruises. The child's parent states, 'My partner got fired today and came home angry. I don't think this will happen again.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale:
Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The nurse should choose option D because it demonstrates empathy, non-judgment, and a desire to gather more information. By expressing interest in the parent's perspective and offering to talk, the nurse can build trust and facilitate open communication. This approach allows the nurse to assess the situation comprehensively and provide appropriate support and resources for the family. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not prioritize understanding the situation or ensuring the child's safety. Making assumptions or immediately involving authorities without a thorough assessment can escalate the situation and harm the parent-nurse relationship.
