Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a 48-year-old client who is grieving following the death of her husband seven months ago. The client reports that she has lost 30 lb and is having difficulty sleeping. Which of the following factors indicate the client is experiencing maladaptive grieving?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: The client has lost 30 lb. This indicates maladaptive grieving as significant weight loss is a common symptom of unresolved grief. This could be due to appetite changes, neglecting self-care, or depression. Losing a considerable amount of weight can impact physical health and well-being, indicating a need for intervention.

Choices A, B, and D are not directly related to maladaptive grieving. Age (
A) and the time since the husband's death (
B) are not definitive indicators of maladaptive grieving. Difficulty sleeping (
D) can be a common symptom of grief but is not as concerning as significant weight loss in this context.
