Question 1 of 5

A nurse is admitting a client who has schizophrenia. The client states, “I'm hearing voices.” Which of the following responses is the priority for the nurse to state?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: C: "What are the voices telling you?"


Rationale: This response is the priority as it focuses on understanding the content of the auditory hallucinations, which can provide valuable insight into the client's current mental state and potential risks. By asking about the content, the nurse can assess for any potential harm or commands the voices may be giving. This information is crucial for determining the level of risk and planning appropriate interventions.

Incorrect Answers:
A: "Have you taken your medication today?" - While medication adherence is important, addressing the content of the hallucinations takes precedence in assessing the client's safety.
B: "How long have you been hearing the voices?" - Understanding the duration is relevant but does not address the immediate risk associated with the content of the voices.
D: "I realize the voices are real to you, but I don't hear anything." - This response dismisses the client's experience and does not address the client's current mental state and potential risks.
